While I was engaging in narcissism, a real scholar was writing the theory that I never will: that beauty to the Japanese is quinessentially in the image, whereas Westerners need to talk about it. Yess! My lame excuse is that when I attempt to write about this topic it is like I am writing myself out. Maybe now that I am not quite invisible I will do better. I live in hope and have professor Takashina's book on order. It is a best seller already. The prime minister should read it, since he clearly does not know how beautiful Japan already is. http://flic.kr/p/AABj3t
