When Buying Or Selling j^V Home
By BILL MARUTANI
While we Nisei generally
look with (justifiable) pride
upon the cultural values pas
sed along to us from our Issei
parents, there may be some
which/ if not placed in proper
perspective, can operate as a
negative factor in our lives.
One of these values is the see
ming propensity of same Nisei
to look upon a batting average
of anything less than 1.000 as
constituting something close
to dismal failure. Thus, if one
were to have temporary rever
passing business de
cline, a loss in some election,
and so on — somehow these
are not to be tolerated in the
scheme of things. And should
such occur, as they most as
suredly shall, somehow we are
to be contritely apologetic.
The difficulty this presents
is that since hone wishes to
be labelled a “loser”, even un
justifiably, the tendency is not
to run any risks; for example,
not to run for political office
since obviously there can be
but one winner and at least
one loser and probably more.
If such possible, consequence
deters some Nisei either from
seeking elective office at all, or
declining from bouncing back
from an unsuccessful first try,
it is fervantly hoped that such
Nisei gear up for another run
at the ring. With no apologies.
In years past we have seen
Nisei who ran for an elective
post and lost. Vicki and I have
contributedAto such campaigns
(contributions were made be
fore prohibitions applied to
this writer). We then watch
for their names to reappear,
hoping that another run will be
made so that we might again
provide, some modest support.
And we’ve been saddened that
no reappearance was made. In
cluding' some where the Nisei
candidate not only made a re
spectable showing but came
very close to actually winning.
As one thinks about it, this,
unswerving “perfect record”
syndrome started perhaps in
our early academic 'years.
There surely must be a num
ber of Nisei out there who, at
one time or another, proudly
brought home a grade of 95
from school (and that’s an
“AA”) only to be met with the
sardonic query why it wasn’t a
100, a manten or kc-no-jo,
(Can’t win for losing.) This
cultural concept might be la
beled by a phrase all of us
have heard: makegirai — one
who hates to lose. Not that
any of us enjoys losing. At
anything. But...
There is also another con
cept that our" good parents
drilled into us: it’s called doryoku — diligently keep trying?"
And so to those Nisei who
have run arid lost — we hope
you’ll try again. Especially if
indeed you are a makegirai..
