Historic connections

A person who had one’s roots both in Phoenicia and Armenia came to visit us from London and thanked me for having organized the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concert in Armenia and presented me with some sweets. She was also very happy with our concert held in Lebanon. I told her that I had traced my roots and came to visit Lebanon, a land of ancient Phoenicians and her eyes became brilliantly shining with joy. We acknowledged a historic link between our lives. I anticipated that the international relationship with people that we have created by organizing our concerts would expand to the rest of the world while she said that she was willing to help us realize our international concerts and seriously think over how to realize them in various countries. Though today was the first time that we met I felt as if we knew each other since a long time ago. This was because I had held the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concert both in Lebanon and Armenia. Our souls were already connected to each other. At our place in Kyoto there came many foreigners while we have been moving around many countries. As internal conditions of our life determined the outer phenomena, encounters with new people would be very exciting as our future would be full of potentials that I could not imagine nor predict in advance.
