Reading an unnecessary book
28/January/2026 in Tokyo
I'm currently reading a book, which is
unnecessary to read
I'm reading this book
Not because;
• it's famous
• it's considered a classic
• it's said to be worth reading
Not because;
Someone recommended me
Not for
any external reasons
But purely for
my internal-something
Many books I should read
Piling up on my desk
Yet every night
I choose this rather lengthy, rather "unnecessary" 90s love romance
I've been looking for a reason
Definite reason for "Why I have to live?"
I wanted reasons for many things
I was believing they would give me "meanings"
But perhaps,
or probably,
fresh vivid colours of joy would exist outside those obligatory notions
