Beauty is everywhere. Spread the Love gorgeous ♥ ∞
Dear Ones -
Can we talk about something?
For the last few months, I've been growing uneasy about a phenomenon I've seen playing out in the media over women's bodies and women's appearance.
And no, this is not about the USUAL thing that makes me uneasy in the media (the exploitation and hyper-sexualization of women's bodies, etc. etc...) That hasn't changed, and I'm not tackling that today.
This is about something new.
This is about prominent women publicly criticizing other prominent women about body image questions, and about each other's private beauty decisions.
I don't want to see this anymore.
The history of women's bodies and women's beauty is a battlefield of epic (and sometimes violent) proportions. The last thing any of us need to be doing is judging each other and turning on each other.
What really frustrates me is the patronizing tone that is sometimes adopted, when a woman who has made a certain set of decisions about her own face and her own body criticizes another woman who has made an entirely different set of decisions about HER own face and HER own body.
You know the tone. It goes like this: "I just think it's so sad that she felt she needed to do that..."
This is a tone of voice that fills me with ire, because: REALLY? Does it make you feel "sad"? Are sure you're using the word "sad" correctly? Does your neighbor's boob job really make you feel "sad"? Does that movie star's plastic surgery genuinely make you feel "sad"? Are you honestly crying into your pillow at night about somebody's Brazilian butt lift — the way you would cry about a death in the family? Honestly?
Or are you just judging a sister, and hiding your judgment behind a screen of moral appropriation?
Check yourself.
No decision that any of us make about our appearance makes us morally better or morally worse than any other woman.
The scale of beauty in our world is vast and complicated and often politically, socially, and culturally confounding. At one extreme, you have the "all-natural" obsessives, who judge anybody who artificially alters her appearance in any manner whatsoever as vain and shallow. At the other of the scale are the extreme beauty junkies, who will do anything for an enhanced sense of beauty, and who judge everyone else as slovenly and drab.
We all have to figure out where we land on that scale. Lipstick, but no hair dye? Legs shaved, but not arms? Hair processing, but no Brazilian wax? Short skirts but no bikini tops? Two-inch heels, but not five-inch heels?
It all sends a message, and it all comes with complications. None of it is easy to figure out. And this is not even taking into account larger questions about religion, history, and cultural ethics. What looks like modesty on a woman in Rio de Janeiro looks like flagrancy in Salt Lake City. What looks like modesty in Salt Lake City is flagrancy in Cairo. What looks like modesty in Cairo is flagrancy in Riyadh. What looks like flagrancy to your grandmother looks like frumpiness to your teenager. What looks beautiful to me might look grotesque or even offensive to you.
IT'S COMPLICATED.
My experience is this: once we have decided where we land on that scale of beauty, we tend to judge all the other women who have made different decisions in either direction around us: This woman is too vain; that one is too plain...it never ends.
It also bothers me that women who define themselves as liberal, left-wing feminists (like myself) will stand on a picket line to defend the right of another woman to do whatever she wants with her reproductive system — but then attack that woman for what she decided to do to her face.
Let me break it down for you: It's none of your business.
Every single molecule of woman's body belongs to HER.
Yes, even her lips.
Yes, even her butt.
To judge a fellow woman for her choices about her own appearance is not only cruel, it also speaks to a fundamental insecurity that says, "I am so uncomfortable with myself that I have now become deeply uncomfortable with YOU, lady — and I don't even know you."
So have some compassion for the fact that it is difficult for any woman to figure out where to place herself on that vast and emotionally-loaded scale of female aesthetic. And check your own vanity before you criticize someone else's vanity. (And do not kid yourself that you are not vain because you do not partake in certain beauty rituals that other women partake in — because you are also making decisions about your body, your face, and your clothing every single day. With every one of those decisions you are also telegraphing to the world your own politics, your own opinions, your own needs and fears, and yes, often your own arrogance.)
No matter what you're wearing, you are dressing up, too.
As the great drag queen RuPaul has said: "We are all born naked. Everything else is just drag."
So be sympathetic. Everyone is facing her own battlefield in her own manner. And the only way you can express empathy about another woman's vanity IS TO BE HONEST ABOUT YOUR OWN.
Once you have reached that place of authentic honesty about your own struggle, you will only ever show kindness toward your sisters.
So here's what I do.
When I see a woman who has lost weight, I say, "You look terrific."
When I see a woman who has quit dieting and embraced her curves, I say, "You look terrific."
When I see a woman who has obviously just had plastic surgery, I say, "You look terrific."
When I see a woman who has let her hair go grey and is hanging out at grocery store in her husband's sweatpants, I say, "You look terrific."
Because you know what? If you are woman and you managed to get up today and go outside, then you look terrific.
If you are still here, then you look terrific.
If you are able to go face down a world that has been arguing about your body and your face for centuries, then you look terrific.
If you have figured out what you need to wear, or do, or not do, in order to feel safe in your own skin, then you look terrific.
If you are standing on your own two feet and the stress of being a woman hasn't killed you yet, then YOU LOOK TERRIFIC.
To say anything less than that to (or about) your fellow woman is to add ammunition to a war that is bad enough already.
So back off, everyone. Be kind.
You're all stunning.
ONWARD,
LG

Direct flights from Fukuoka to Hanoi only take 3.5~4 hours, and run every Tuesday and Saturday, so when Tatsu got 5 days holiday, we knew exactly how we wanted to spend it.
We spent 2 days in Old Quarter, in the heart of Hanoi City, eating all the food, sightseeing, and hanging out with the cool volunteer tour guides from Hanoi Kids ( http://hanoikids.org/ ). I mention that everything is cheap in Vietnam, but to give you an idea of just how cheap, our centrally located Hotel was $28 USD a night, for a room much bigger than any $100 hotel in Japan.
A bowl of Pho will cost about $2 USD. Tatsu and I could have a filling lunch for about $5 USD. Vietnamese Beer costs about $1 USD, and is a welcoming refreshment on a hot day.
Taxis can scam you, so you'll have to be careful and make sure they use the metre when you are riding, but we could get around town for on average, $3-4 USD per ride. Much cheaper than what we pay in Japan. The 40 minute drive to the airport cost $15 USD by Taxi. In Japan you'd expect to pay much, much more for the distance.
For our entire trip we budgeted $300 USD for spending for the two of us ($150 usd each), and we still had money left over by the time we got to the airport to fly back to Fukuoka. We aren't budget travellers and don't try to save money, so if you are someone who prefers to spend less money, it's definitely possible.
Then we took a tour to Halong Bay, a Unesco World Heritage Site, featuring over 1,600 islands. The scale was so vast and incredible, and the tour was really relaxing and a well-deserved break from our busy life in Japan. (Did I mention we had no WiFi, so we were totally disconnected during those two days as well!)
We booked with AClass Tours, and although we booked the "Legend" cruise, we got upgraded to the "Stella Cruise", which was more expensive, nicer bedroom, for no extra cost. ($120 USD for each of us.) The $120 each covered the 3.5 hour shuttle bus round trip, accommodation on the boat (beautiful ocean-view suite), all the national park entry fees (maze cave, floating village), four meals (lunch, dinner, breakfast, lunch), free wine tasting on ship, and even my visa letter. (Canadians need to apply for a visa before arriving in Vietnam, Japanese don't. The company I booked through took care of my Visa letter for free with reservation of the cruise.)
I booked on https://www.bestpricevn.com/halongbaycruises/
(This isn't sponsored by the way, I'm just writing this all down because when I was planning the trip I had a really hard time figuring out all this stuff myself. Hopefully this helps anyone who wants to plan their own trip!)

日文歌詞 / Japanese Lyrics :
ひとり星に 舞い降りて 砂漠の中見つけ出した
僕の手にふれた その花 小さくふるえてた
この愛＋YOU＋I=は何?
僕の声が聞こえるかな? 少し遠くにいるのかな?
空に飾った花を見て 二人笑いあえるかな?
愛よ 届け まだまだ先へ
もっと遠くへ 響き渡って
小さな星の大きな愛が あなたへ届け
小さな頃 読んでいた 絵本の中見つけ出した
ポケットに入れた秘密を いつかは見せたくて
この愛＋YOU＋I=も愛?
好きな花は育てるから 好きな歌も覚えたから
草の冠作ったら きっと 笑いあえるかな?
愛よ 届け あなたの星へ
もっと遠くで 音を鳴らして
小さな恋が奏でた歌が 夜空に響け
愛＋YOU＋I=は何?
同じ空を見ているかな? 少し遠くにいるのかな?
同じ気持ちでいられたら ずっと笑いあえるよね
愛よ 届け まだまだ先へ
もっと遠くへ 響き渡って
小さな星の大きな愛が あなたへ届け
愛よ 届け あなたの星へ
もっと遠くで 音を鳴らして
小さな恋が奏でた歌が 夜空に響け
中文歌詞 / Chinese Lyrics :
一個人，飄落在這顆星球上，於星球沙漠裡找到的——
觸碰了我的那朵花兒，正在我的手中，微微晃動著
這份愛，加上妳，再加上我，等於什麼？
妳聽的見我的聲音嗎？是否只是待在比較遙遠的地方？
看著我為妳高舉的花朵，妳我，是否就能一起歡笑了？
愛啊，請一定要送到妳身邊，送到更遠的前方
讓這份悸動迴響在更遠更遠的地方
願這小小星球的大大愛戀，能夠傳到妳的心中
年幼時，於閱讀的繪本裡找到的東西
藏進了口袋裡的，那個秘密，總有一天，就是希望能夠讓妳看見
這份愛，加上妳，加上我，是否也仍然等於愛呢？
我會栽培妳喜歡的花朵，也學會了妳喜歡的歌曲
如果做了妳最喜愛的草環，妳肯定，會對我展露笑容吧？
愛啊，請一定要送到，送到妳所身處的星球
在更遙遠遙遠的地方，留下那份悸動
將這小小的愛戀所演奏的情歌，響徹這片夜空
愛，加上妳，加上我，到底等於什麼呢？
妳我是否看著同一片天空？看不到是否只是因為妳在比較遙遠的地方？
若是能懷著一樣的心情，我們，肯定可以一直歡笑吧？
愛啊，請送到前方，送到遙遠遙遠的前方
將這首情歌，迴盪在更加遙遠的地方
讓這小小星球的大大愛戀，能傳達到妳的心中——
愛啊，請一定要送達、送達妳所在的星球
在那更遙遠的地方，留下這份愛戀
讓這份小小戀情所演奏的思念，響徹這片夜空
英文歌詞 / English Lyrics :
I was flying down into a lone star
In the desert, I discovered
A flower I touched with my hands
slightly trembled
This love + YOU + I = What?
Can you hear my voice?
Is it seemed a little bit far away?
I see a flower decorated the sky
Will we be able to laugh together?
Love, please reach out far there
Resounding my love even farther
I’ll send out this vast love of a tiny star
to you
Inside a picture book
I read when I was little
I found a secret
I hid on my pocket
And one day,
I wanna show it to you
This love + YOU + I = Love too?
I raise your favorite flowers
I’ve remembered your favorite songs
If I made a crown flower,
Surely, will we be able to laugh together?
Love, please reach to my dear’s star
Ringing the sound even farther
Melody played by this tiny love
will resounding to the night sky
Love + YOU + I = What?
Are we gazing at the same sky?
Is it seemed a little bit far away?
If we had the same feelings
We will laugh together, forever
Love, please reach out far there
Resounding my love even farther
I’ll send out this vast love of a tiny star
to you
Love, please reach to my dear’s star
Ringing the sound even farther
The melody played by this tiny love
will resounding to the night sky
The Los Angeles Lakers beat the Philadelphia 76ers, 70-69, thanks to a buzzer beating three-point game-winner by D'Angelo Russell.
"He has a chance to be special," Lakers summer league coach Jesse Mermuys said about Russell after the game. "These are the types of learning lessons that Summer League is about. He needs to feel what that's like and feel that situation, feel an ugly game and then come out with a win and hit a big shot."
Lakers Bringing Back Marcelo Huertas
Mermuys added, "That's part of his development."
On a night when the focus was on the top two picks in the 2016 NBA Draft, Ben Simmons and Brandon Ingram, going head-to-head, second year players Larry Nance Jr. and Russell stole the show in the second half.
"I think that when you don't knock shots down, you've got to find a way to do something else and try to impact the game in another way," Ingram talked about how he continued to contribute during a tough outing.
Simmons, though, looked every bit as good as advertised. The top selection in the 2016 NBA Draft finished with eight points, 10 rebounds and eight assists, almost notching a triple-double. Simmons could have had more assists if his team had knocked down more of the open looks the talented forward created.

However, Simmons did also commit seven turnovers, which was a testament to Nance, who guarded the versatile forward for the vast majority of the contest. In truth, Ingram and Simmons never truly went head-to-head, and the for the handful of possessions the top two picks were matched up, a one-on-one scenario did not materialize.
Friday night's game was about redemption for the Lakers, who had looked far too sloppy in the first half. Nance and Russell committed nine of the Lakers' 13 first half giveaways, but the relatively experienced duo bounced back and led the comeback in the second half.
