Authentic spring
On a gentle winter day in Kyoto I took another path leading to the Yasaka tower from Yumemizaka slope, one I usually walked. As I passed the Koma Gallery Café I thought about a mysterious life of mine, and my heart was greatly moved out of gratitude, and when I reached the tower a beautiful wind of light was provided and I envisioned that souls of people were freely flying over space. I realized the arrival of an authentic spring and became filled with joy and came down to our place through its back gate, facing the tower. People were busy making miso in its inner garden and the Koma calligraphy sign board installed at a cottage house was brilliantly shining. That seemed to express the time to build a new country. Everything was preparing for welcoming the arrival of an authentic spring for humankind and a wind of joy was blowing around. I felt that the year 2013 should be a very different one, and I named everything, as a sign of the arrival of an authentic spring. Nothing else came into my mind, and I heard the same from Mother Earth and voices of souls.
My soul trembled as I realized that the most sincere wish of humankind was being realized now. I would live on truthful to this and welcome the era of authentic spring while old human history had been wiped away at the Idaki Shin concert held in Morioka.
