Why should my Blog be called "In the Dark Corner of my Room..."? That sounds mysterical, dark, depressing and maybe, if one has enough imagination, maybe even kinky? There are two good reasons for this.
The first is a bit boring, as it consists in the almost direct translation of my previous blog which was called ~太陽のない部屋の隅~ (lit. sunless corner of a bedroom). The second reason, closely linked to the first one, is the motivation for me to choose that title to start with:
What do people write in their Blogs, I ask myself. For me a Blog is a given space where one lies down words and pictures, showing things as they see them, and often things that were never put in words before. They are an exprience that often would end up sort of literally comes out of the dark corner of one's heart, the dark corner of one's room. I thought calling a Blog 'Secret Garden' might sound weird on many levels, but then, 'Secrect Garden' is what I really mean by this title: a place where I keep my things, save the fact that this time, I put my thoughts together to share them somehow with people reading it...
