Ordinary Life
普通の生活
Synopsis
Touch anchors fleeting moments; only bodily sensation confirms the ever-changing "now."
Ordinary life repeats itself every day. The succession of moments that we repeat over and over again is never the same, and everything changes and wavers. The moment we touch something, our consciousness can go to a place that does not exist anywhere in the past, nor in the future. In an uncertain and fluctuating world, only the feeling of the body touching something, which exists only in this present reality, can be recognized as "now". That moment is lovely.
