10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

Started working as a music writer as a side job while employed at a record shop, and for over 18 years I’ve contributed to music magazines, disc guide books, mooks, and web media. As a writer my main field is Western music, but as a listener for over 35 years, I always try to keep my curiosity alive with the motto “I like what I like.” I have experience playing in bands, where I was a bassist who handled songwriting and composition. Instruments I’ve played include bass, guitar, and piano. I began studying English in my mid-40s and continue to do so today.

It’s extremely rare to part ways skillfully. If things were truly going well, you wouldn’t break up in the first place.Marcel Proust

[Inspirational Quotes] A Collection of Quotes That Can Change Your Life in an Instant — Marcel Proust 1

It’s extremely rare to part ways skillfully. If things were truly going well, you wouldn’t break up in the first place. —Marcel Proust

Marcel Proust (1871–1922) was a French novelist best known for In Search of Lost Time.

It’s reassuring to know that when a breakup gets complicated and the pain lingers afterward, that’s only natural.

Perhaps there’s no such thing as a romance that’s neat and free of sorrow.

People aren’t thrown away by others. The only thing you can do is abandon yourself.Banana Yoshimoto

“No one gets discarded by other people; the only thing you can discard is yourself.” These are the words of Banana Yoshimoto, a popular novelist in Japan.

When you’re heartbroken, hurt by something someone said, or feel betrayed, it’s easy to develop an inferiority complex toward others, put yourself down, and slip into negative thinking.

You start to believe you were abandoned because your worth is less than someone else’s.

But in truth, that’s not the case at all—your value isn’t something measured by others.

This quote reminds us of that and helps us move forward with a more positive mindset.

Beautiful words that strike the heart. A collection of memorable quotes to give to those who have experienced parting (21–30)

I now know what love is.Vergilius

Publius Vergilius Maro, the poet known as one of the figures who brought about the Golden Age of Latin literature.

The words “Now I know what love is” convey a message born not of ideals or theory, but of having truly experienced love.

Whether mutual or unrequited, the fact that those feelings were possible only because of that experience is an encouragement that the romance was not in vain.

It is a profound remark that teaches us the value of taking on challenges—not only in love, but in all things.
