At Tohoku

 

A blow of wind and a nostalgic aroma of my childhood have come. I envisioned a dream that everybody was living a happy and vigorous life. I yearned for an eternal world that would allow me to live an ever shining life. Ever since I bought an apartment in Tohoku, the wind at night made me speculate about the destiny of my life. Tonight a pure blue sky was widely spread over the night sky that made me tremble as I realized an endless world and a mysterious nature of human life. I recalled that at the age of 16 I made a high school trip to Morioka and encountered a pure shining blue star that made me feel that my future would be opened up greatly. That experience made me get over a pessimistic state of my life, while the surrounding circumstances did not give me any positive meaning of life, and I was at lost how to live on, until the vision I had envisioned at Hanamaki city showed me a marvelous future. I had wished to travel to the north of Japan as far as I could move forward anticipating that I would encounter something very important. A light reflecting on the surface of the water of the Kitakami river assured me of the will to live on. Later I encountered Mr. Idaki Shin who made me renew my life and allowed me to live a life truthful to my own nature. In the mother Earth of 40 degrees north latitude, my life has always been saved, so I felt a great and mysterious link as I was blown by a special wind at night. I envisioned a divine bird flying over the space to make miraculous things happen. Here I realized that our life was indeed unified with Great Being and nature. Cherishing a broad heart I would change our world and keep on paving a way for peace.
