Canon's Diary

Action without thought is empty; thought without action is blind – Goethe

While living with schizophrenia, I move between Tokyo and Osaka. Through this journal, I hope to quietly share moments from my daily life—and memories from the journey I’ve taken with my illness.

Wednesday, September 3, 2025. By the time I got home, the surroundings were already dim. There seemed to be a few more clouds than usual. The morning and evening news keep reporting on the lingering summer heat, but I can feel that the days have started to cool down a little. While I feel relieved that the sweltering days are finally coming to an end, there’s also a faint sense of loneliness in the air.

Since I had a tennis lesson at 8:30 p.m., I kept dinner light with just a cup of instant noodles. Work has been busy these past few days, but I’ve regained enough strength to go to tennis practice on a weekday night. With a team match coming up this weekend, I wanted to check my serving form. I plan to keep my practice moderate so that it won’t interfere with work the next day.

The hottest summer on record is about to come to an end. As I headed out, the night breeze felt pleasant against my skin — a gentle reminder that summer was truly coming to an end.
