It's not because things are difficult that we dare not venture. It's because we dare not venture that they are difficult.

"It's not because things are difficult that we dare not venture. It's because we dare not venture that they are difficult."
困難だから挑戦しないので絵はない。挑戦しないから、困難なのだ。

Recently I have two things to think. One is a pre-school's future in Yokohama and my summer course.
Pre-school wants to start Christian Classic school system based on the American accreditation of Christian school where they would teach classics like Latin or Greek from an elementary level. I think it is a good idea but where are the students.
The second area I am concern is completing my Social Studies credential. It requires a lot of energy to complete it with educated Japanese. I think I would spend three to six months concentrating with educated Japanese from May onward.
What is your challenge for coming months?
