Whenever I visit to Northwest Alabama to see my friends, I think about Helen Adams Keller who was from that part of the United States.
Ms. Keller visited Japan in 1932, in 1948 and again in 1952.
Helen was born in 1880.
In 1932 when she was 52 years old, she visited Japan for the first time.
In1932, Imperil Japanese was like a sunrise.
At the that time , Japan kept a rather well relationship with China, but Japan was also in the process of expanding their power to the Northeast of China.
When Ms. Keller visited Japan for the second time in 1948.
The country was like she used be herself.
There was no way of communication and people did not know anything about the future.
What did she fell about that?
In the seventeen years, everything had changed.
There is a story.
Helen Keller stayed at two different hotels, Hakone and Nikko.
Two different hotels were built by same carpenter, with same material.
No one noticed.
However, Ms. Keller noticed and she asked "They smell the same. Is there any coincidence?"
The Japanese educational system for the kids like her has advanced greatly over the years.
It owed much her speechs she did pre-war and after war, what was her miracle.
Japanese feel her very close.
