Shutaro Endo


 
            I’m Shutaro Endo. My personality is Provider. Provider is sympathetic, easy-going and steady. In addition, It is caring, traditional, tend to avoid conflict and not afraid to express your belief. I almost agree with it. However, I agree and disagree with traditional. I have a reason why I do so.

            Textbook said provider is traditional, but I cannot understand the meaning of “traditional”. If it means those who are typical character in my country, I’m so. This is because I am a little bit shy and do not tell someone all of my feelings like most of Japanese. On the other hand, if it means those who wear traditional clothes or speak old language, I’m definitely not! I have never wore kimono and had katana.

            In my opinion, I am so typical Japanese. I’m conscientious and not talkative. I like to help someone if they lost their way in station or street. However, I tend to avoid trying to do new things and cannot try to talk to new people.

  3. As traditional as you. I am a classical Chinese. I am shy and tend to stay alone rather than talk with new people. Maybe we should challenge ourself, try to talk more. Perhaps...

  5. Your discussion on the meaning of 'traditional' is interesting. So you're saying you are traditional in character but not in style. I have a passion for traditional Japanese style and surround myself with Japanese scroll paintings, lacquerware, ceramics and so on. I'm a traditionalist in exactly the way you're not.
    David :-)

    1. Hi David,
      Do you have Japanese scroll paintings!? In my opinion, most Japanese hardly have them! Of course, I have no them.
