Happy new year

Monosus, which was founded in 2004, is now in its 14th year.
And now this Monosasu site has celebrated its third New Year.

Last year, we continued to work on the theme of "freedom and responsibility."

The word "freedom" seems to have been used in Japan for a long time.
Rather, it seems to have a stronger nuance of referring to dissolute behavior, selfishness, and wayward behaviour.

So what words were used in the past to describe the freedom we know today?

I looked into it and found it.

The system of free trade that appeared in Japanese history textbooks,
The "raku" in Rakuichi/Rakuza.

Yes, freedom is fun.
When I heard the word "easy," I felt as if the world had suddenly become clear.

The concepts of freedom and responsibility always exist side by side with the concepts of rights and obligations.
It does have the inconvenience of having to start with that discussion first, but if it's easy for you, you can use it without hesitation.

Enjoy work and enjoy life.
Have fun yourself and have fun with others.
Feel good, feel good, and feel good.

This seems like something we can all aim for.

In 2018, with all of you and my beloved members,
I would like to have fun working together with you.

Thank you for your continued support this year.
