Heart of Koma

Today I received many people at the newly opened Koma gallery café and had a great time. From ten o’clock in the morning Mr. Idaki Shin started to make rice cakes in a traditional method and also specially served coffee that made everybody very happy. The view of the tower of Yasaka seen from the second floor was very impressive. I recalled great joy I had when I visited here for the first time. I exclaimed my joy at the sight of the light-scape of the tower that carried an atmosphere of ancient times. My soul trembled and I shed tears out of great impressions. At that time I had already envisioned the opening of my gallery. As I sat in the same spot I felt the same ancient atmosphere and I could not help shedding tears. I knew that my life was not a mere personal one. I was amazed at my life and I realized the huge potential of a person’s life. I could not predict what would happen in future. Nobody had imagined that all of us would celebrate the new year from Kyoto. I knew that my future life would also be full of wonder.
