Big city Okayama
There is the most prosperous city in the world. Okayama is a big city. Yesterday was a special night. The first thing that caught my eye as I sped down the highway and landed in Okayama was the view of the metropolis of Okayama. But this is no ordinary Okayama. A glittering megalopolis set thousands of years in the future. There, there were towering buildings and bands of light flowing like veins of electrons. There were skyscrapers under the expressway, and although there was no ceiling, it felt like a closed world, and the sky had changed to a color from a distant memory. ``Where am I?\'\' I asked myself, and subconsciously I began searching for an answer. Is it a dream, reality, or...? One of the buildings suddenly emitted a light, and when the light touched me, it felt like time had stopped. The future that this city presents is beautiful, but it also makes me feel lonely. Where is people\'s consciousness? The lack of smiles and conversations that should have filled the streets seemed to cast a silent cry over this landscape. Then, I suddenly realized that I was standing in another part of Okayama. This view of Okayama may be a dream, but its beauty and sense of solitude encourage us to think deeply about the future we will create. After completing my walk, I sped my way home, wondering what I could find, learn, and change in this big city.
