Kafka Tamura
A fifteen-year-old boy. His mother left home when he was 3 years old and he was living together with his father. But the father was so busy with his own life and he was not aware of his son. One day he decided to escape from home. He prepared his bag, took some money from his father's valet.
He did not have any idea where to go. He did not have any plan. He just wanted to leave home and live alone in an unknown place, far away from all his relatives and friends. He did not only left home but he also left the school. He was studying at a middle school and he was to finish it because it was compulsory for anyone to finish at least middle school.
This story is an interesting affair for any teenager. Leaving home and school. Packing his suitcase putting some underwear and t-shirts. One hand in the pocket and the suitcase on the shoulder, sun glasses on the eyes... Money enough to live for a few days... Later... No problem... Solutions are to be explored... Experience is to be tested.
I want to travel now in the cells of his brain. What kind of expectations or which reason is to be handled as the key word of this travel desire... leaving all his life behind, for a new but an unknown life considering that on that time he was only fifteen years old. No mother. No brother and sister. Father, yes, but just a name, he was outside of this sight, busy with his job, not aware of his son, even he was at home or not he never thinks...
He generates his own wish to travel with his bag as a companion. Why? How does a human, a teenager feed his wishes for such a travel?
This is the question I want to fight for the answer although I can shut all my brain holes for other subjects now. The answer, I believe, is much more valuable for me than all the other subjects.
Am I exaggerating? No. Really. This is the most powerful subject in my life.
I really need to discuss and find the answer of this question. Why? How?
Then another question is to be asked me as the author of this paper. What the hell do you need such an answer? What is use of this answer in your life?
Now we have 2 questions:
What does make Kafka leave his all possessions for such a strange travel?
What is the use of this answer in your sight?
Oh.
I am now OK with those two questions. These will be the compass of my paper.

A question...
Is there anybody who does not want such a travel when he or she is or was in his fifteens?
Answers... Smiles... May I see the hands for no please? No hands. Hands for yes? Oooo. I can see all the bodies with their two hands up for the answer yes... (yes, yes for some do not want to leave their families, because they love their parents and sisters. Bu the idea without permanently losing them, again is still un-resistible.)
Another question...
The same question for 25-year olds?
Most probably, still most of the hands up for yes.
Yes, I know that such a travel is just like love to the other gender. Powerful wish. In some cases, it is un-resistible.
When the necessities for this travel are accomplished no body regrets for accepting it. This is just like the spring of spiritual side of the human body.

Spiritual Side of Human Body
Human body needs both food and emotions to survive. Without considering emotions you cannot live and more you cannot make others live too. If you handle yourself as a third person, this time you should tell yourself this: "You cannot make yourself live without emotions..."
As a teacher or a close friend of my lovely ones, my main aim is to make you live in this world as you wish, as you want, as you desire but in cooperation with your lovely ones.
Leaving all the possessions behind and shutting all the door, traveling is not the only way for you to live as you wish. It must not be so too. But if you draw your life, as it is a free travel for you with your bags on shoulders and money in our pockets, the life will be easier than before for you.
You have a long journey before you in your life. Life is not always easy as banging the doors behind and escaping from realities.
You have to fight for your future. You have to struggle for your success. Success is not always important. But struggling or working is important.
If you like your current responsibilities just like they are travelling, you can continue working on your deeds.
When you like what you are to do, then you will be protected from your mental monsters. Those monsters are your emotions preventing you doing what you are to do according to your responsibilities.
All the bodies, in their souls, they hide evil wishes, exaggerations, whether they are teenagers or adults. This is the crucial aspect of human life. Nobody will be safe from their poisoned gazes. Nobody can throw them away from their souls.
But if one succeeds on looking at his/her deeds as if they are just like a travel like Kafka Tamura goes, this time this feeling will save them from their monsters.
In case that one walks on his life journey in such a form, this time nobody can stop their success.
With my best wishes.
Your white-headed friend but full of with strong expectations for you.
