To North Eastern Japan
Shortly after I left Kyoto and went back to Tokyo I was heading for the Tohoku area where a historic aroma of its ancient hero Aterui attracted my heart and beautiful stars twinkling in the vast sky far beyond Heaven that I had watched during my graduate trip to Tohoku were revived. Human life was indeed very mysterious as in a timely manner I came to recall a specific thing in my past life that seemed to predict my future life in that instance. Likewise these days I happened to get greatly attracted by something that did not seem meaningful. However, in such a moment my life became extremely vigorous and I felt like telling other people about it with joy though nobody could understand me as there was no logical order in my story on the spot. Only at later stage my story always turned out to be a reality. I realized that my heart became greatly attracted by a light and wind coming from the future. While I have been preparing a trip to the Tohoku area in northern Japan for tomorrow, I was filled with an aroma of the hero Atterui and a deepening autumn season.
