GACKT's LINE Message - July 2, 2012

[excused_early]

いよいよ、7月4日のバースデーライブが近づいてきた。今回はYFCの解散祭とバースデーを共にするという、まあ、YFCらしい趣向なのだが。とにかく、スケジュールがない中での進行がかなりキツい。今日は、アニメのアテレコを午前中に終わらせ、そのままライブリハに入った。舞台の稽古と平行しての作業に喉が完全にやられてしまった。ま、これも一興。この緊張感がいいと思えばそれもまた面白くなる。昨日の夜は久しぶりにイライラした気分のまま、家に着きそのままカプチーノでも飲むかとロビー奥のBARに入ったのだが、姪っ子が珍しくカウンターに座っていた。「お、久しぶりじゃないか？どうした？」と声を掛けると、「ガク兄ちゃんのバースデーパーティーのリストを整理してます。まだ、終わらなくて･･･」

oh gosh, why do i want to cry? because i am a parent and i know how hard my kids try to relax me when i'm stressed? just made me think of my Lyn when my shoulders are so tight i can't get out of bed. ok so she kicks them with her heals, but it helps, lol.

he's so freaking sweet! yes, G, parents do seek this with their kids.

ok, ok, this pony will sleep better after reading this, thanks, val!

She kicks with her heals? Your shoulders must be rock-solid like G's! LOL

That was a sweet message, although in a way it's also very strange to me. Not in a bad way strange, it's just I never did this with either parent so I can't relate to what he's talking about. Maybe it's a cultural thing. I have had great times spent with my mom though, and appreciate those times I get to spend with her. Guess I can relate a little then hehe

"never did this"? Do you mean shoulder massage?
It doesn't have to be a massage, though. Any little thing that you do for someone you care about, you know? ^^

[mrjl_writer]

Yeah. It just seems...I don't know how to explain it. These kinds of moments he recalls just seem very personal and special to him, these physical gestures. I really don't know how to explain it, I guess because close physical touch wasn't huge in my family. So it seems different to me.

[excused_early]

Oh, I see...
The Japanese aren't big on hugging and kissing, so I guess shoulder massage is one of those moments when you do physically show appreciation to someone else, you know?
I'm actually very good at giving a shoulder massage, so I used to do that for my mother, too, and I do remember it well, and how appreciative she was.
(I was so good at it, one of my elementary school teachers made me massage his shoulders sometimes while the others worked on their lessons. This was hilarious, and made me feel special somehow... XD)
