To leave or not to leave?

I'm sitting at Starbucks thinking about Yoshi. He's thousands of miles away, finishing up the last three weeks of his job. Considering the current situation in Japan, it's hard to say what the right thing to do is.

Is the foreign media blowing up the nuclear crisis?
Is the Japanese government hiding information from its people?

When in doubt, trust your instincts.

I chose to leave Japan; Yoshi chose to stay. It seems that the difference in reaction is a cultural thing. I have a 'better safe than sorry' attitude while Yoshi has a 'loyalty first' attitude. Neither is right or wrong. And we chose to respect our differences.

The best decision is always the one we make together.

我在 Starbucks 想念 Yoshi。他還在日本工作。離開日本或待在日本、那一個比較好？外國的新聞太誇張嗎？日本政府在隱密情報嗎？

不能肯定的時候、最好是相信自己的直覺。

我決定我要離開日本。Yoshi決定他要待在日本。外國人跟日本人的態度不一樣、好像是跟文化有關係。我的態度是「健康最重要」、Yoshi 的態度是「忠誠最重要」。沒有對的或錯的。

最好的決定是我們一起決定的。
