Cancelled Order
Orders that have been sent out but subsequently cancelled, it loses its validity as if it were floating in the air, leaving only its history to drift in the void. The active and energetic act of ordering no longer seems to belong to you. Just because I was active and full of energy, so what? I like to spend my time hesitating. So why did you confirm an order once? Emotions and moods will have their ups and downs. At that time you had such a strong impulse that you thought you could stop spending time hesitating. What was that? It is hard to say, but I think human being are more complicated than that. At least I feel that the word impulse is not enough to describe the ‘work’ that has happened to me. Another way of putting it? Well… I can not answer that right now. I would like to think about it carefully. If I answer easily, it may be good for the moment, but I feel that it will have unexpected harmful effects later on. It’s good to be cautious. But in the meantime, time flies.
