Why I am not good at leaving comments
Good morning. This is Ichiyama.
There is something I am not good at.
I am very bad at
leaving comments on articles posted by others.
My writing tends to be long, so I avoid it to prevent people from thinking, "That's long."
What came out spontaneously was a post in a content creation community.
It was when Mr. Sueyoshi sent out a survey.
It seems he was conducting it while I was writing a note, so I missed the boat.
"I just noticed this now. I hope I can participate again."
Thoughts are only conveyed when they are expressed in words.
If they remain locked away, they will not be conveyed.
I believe that by putting into words that I am not good at leaving comments, I am able to convey that to my readers.
Also, my state of mind when I saw the survey.
Also, my state of mind when I saw the survey.
Thoughts and ideas are conveyed because they are put into words.
However, when I comment on someone's post,
"Won't this be a burden on the creator or their readers?"
Somewhere in my heart, I think that.
My writing tends to be long.
Combined with my politeness, it ends up being a long text.
For example, when I saw the survey earlier
and went to comment on my state of mind,
Hello. This is Ichiyama. I just checked the survey!
I am sorry I could not answer it.
I would be happy if you could
conduct it again on another occasion.
Thank you very much!
This is the text that actually came to mind.
It inevitably ends up being long.
I felt that sending a long message after it was over
felt somehow wrong, so
I quietly hid it deep in my heart.
Reading text requires at least some effort.
Even if it is small, it becomes a burden when it piles up, so
I have avoided leaving comments.
Even so, by putting it out there,
I feel a sense of relief.
Is it because it is an article I started myself?
I can reply to comments received on my articles
without any resistance.
It is when I leave a message in someone else's space
that I feel resistance.
While writing this, I found it strange.
What I suddenly thought was that
I do not want to interfere with
the creator's worldview.
Since the passion hidden within resides in the text,
I think it is a heavy burden for the reader.
Leaving a comment = placing a burden on the other person
Replying to a comment = responding to the other person's kindness and sincerity
I think that is probably the way I think.
I still cannot find the courage to leave comments.
Even so,
I want to cherish my thoughts after reading articles and my replies to comments.
Respecting each other's worldviews and valuesand
continuing our creative activities
would be nice.
Thank you for reading until the end.
Thank you very much.
Is there anything you feel you're not good at?

It is Nozomi-san, who shares content in both Japanese and English.
Inspired by my first live broadcast,
she volunteered to participate,
saying, "I'd like to talk too."
I'm excited and nervous
to hear what she has to say.
You can find Nozomi-san's article here.
Also, she will be holding a Zoom meeting soon.
The theme is, "Expanding your reach to the world without overexerting yourself."
I felt this is a great chance to interact
with those who are already creating content
or those who want to start doing so.
