I didnā€™t understand what others were talking to me about, and I wondered why. I wondered. I thought it was because they were assuming that I had a ā€œdesire to occupy an important positionā€.

Specifically, why donā€™t we create a Japan branch-like legal entity of a certain movement and funnel the cash generated by another case into it? Something like that. I never understood why it was necessary to do that, but it seems to me that if you do that, you have a source of income for the legal entity, and therefore, you have spontaneous authority. No, I thought, thatā€™s just a pain in the ass.

But then I donā€™t think you can say that there is no ā€œdesire to occupy an important position.ā€ I guess it depends on what you consider important. Iā€™ll be chatting with smart people to discuss the realization of a common ideal, and in the course of that discussion, something like this will come up, and Iā€™ll be like, ā€œI seeā€¦ This is what I consider a ā€œkey position.ā€

Itā€™s stimulating to talk to people from different cultures.
