Hangover of impatience

I had very strong gin and tonic last night.

I got drunk and don't remember anything about the dinner at my friends' place except a few things.

I was squatting with my arms around the toilet, trying to throw up in vain.

Eventually I came home. Once again in the bath room, this time I was successful.

The next moment, I was in the bed, wondering what is the meaning of it.

Rather, I was trying to convince myself that one should not look for the meaning about everything.

There is no reason. Just accept it. 

That is the teaching of Lao Tzu.

Why do I have to go through this? There is no reason.

I have gone through everything just to learn that there is no reason.

I have been very impatient about my travel site.

It has been difficult to find link partners.

Now I say to myself, "It is all right. The things will come naturally. After all, I am creating everything. Stop analyzing. Just accept my own creation".

I have finished writing on the Asakusa seaweeds. I will work on pawn brokers near Asakusa and how to sell gold.

Tell me how to promote small businesses

If someone knows it, please tell me how one can promote his small business.

Yesterday I sent an email to the owner of Kyoto Craft man House, who desperately wants to expand his business horizons.

He has a cute little Internet site and even a blog in English. I suggested that he should register his sites in English directories, but is it really useful?

He is making beautiful kimonos and, like any other traditional industries in Japan, his craftsmanship is not rewarded with the financial gain that his skill deserves.

Is there any link exchange site for small and traditional businesses?

I think it should, but wonder where I can find it.

Once in a while, we hear success stories of small business owners using Internet. I would like to know how they get their sites recognized.

Well, we need to save whales and help Tibetans. I agree. Then, don't you think wonderful kimono making skills should be preserved as well?

Please tell us where we should look in order to contact people who are interested in old and new small business owners with their skill unique in the world.
