【Today could be the last day】能登大地震を通じて感じ、私が伝えられること(英文)

Today could be the last day
I’ve been living away from my parents
since I got into college and I spent some
of those years abroad.
So, in total, 10 years to be living away.
These days, I know 10 years of living away
from parents is not that exceptional and
I believe many people have been living
away from their parents longer than me.
In 3.5 years when I lived
in San Francisco by myself,
my family came there to visit me.
Yet, even for once, I didn’t go back to Japan
for 3.5 years. The reason was that
I wanted to use a privileged ticket
at the maximum potential:
I could go back to Japan
whenever I want as I have
a Japanese passport
and I wanted to use my energy
to feel, see, experience,
grow, and give as much as possible
by staying in San Francisco
as much as possible
because I know the worth of the ticket.
I know there are many people
who want to do so but can’t.
I believe I made the right choice.
If not, I still made it the right choice.
And thanks to my choice,
I hope I used my time and energy wisely
and brought enrichments to me,
to my life, and hopefully everyone
who had been involved with my life as well.
I have no regret in choosing to stay there
and not go back to home.
But that ticket was not the only one I held.
Another ticket I got consequently was the one
“I won’t be able to be close to my family
when something happens to them”.
I needed to brace myself to hold that,
another ticket. Thinking back, I was not the only one
holding it; I made my family hold it too.
My family is super supportive of me and
respects my goal, way, and life.
And I believe in pursuing them with my full heart
and full energy eventually shows and represent
my honor for their support and respect and
My responsibility as one human.
This, I don’t feel guilty to hold and
made them hold that ticket; yet,
I imprinted in my heart
“Never put off till tomorrow what can be done today”.
I always remind myself myself and
appreciate and cherish people and time
even tho they could be someone/something
you always have and are not that “special”.
I’m not a “perfect” human being;
I was the one who wasn’t showing
my gratitudes enough and well.
Yet, I’ve grown.
When I feel the need to make an apology,
I do even tho it’s a tiny thing or
it takes long to do it.
When I want to show my appreciation,
I unapologetically do.
I don’t say I do it perfectly,
but at least I live this idea and
I hope people “feel” my idea, my heart.
Earthquake. Airplane accident.
This year started with These sad
tragedies in Japan.
If you live outside of Japan or
even in Japan, you may feel like
You don’t have any capability to
help them but just watch them sadly.
The fact is that your “normal” life
continues even though
there are many sad things out there.
Yet, in these “normal” days,
You are capable of living each day to the fullest.
Living to the fullest, could not be a direct help
to people who are suffering from
tragedies, but I believe it is
a capability and responsibility
as the one who is gifted to keep living
and keep having “normal” days.
Although I urged you to
live to the fullest, don’t neglect
showing appreciation and apologies,
One person whom I didn’t do it came to my mind.
So I wrote a letter to them.
…what do you do?
I know it’s not easy, for some people,
It’s the hardest thing.
But don’t put it off too long. Because …
you don’t know if you can see them tomorrow.
You don’t know if tomorrow will come.
