Today I felt a wind of Phoenicia and recalled Lebanese friends who sincerely cherished my poems as their companions in life, nursing their hearts and encouraging them to live on though they were living in an extremely difficult circumstance full of miseries. Tears came up in my eyes. That doubled a beautiful and pure sea scape that I had seen in Lebanon through the window of a hotel lounge and my tearful eyes. I envisioned within my heart that their future should be brilliantly shining like that shining sea. Though numerous tragedies never stopped in Lebanon, a wind of Lebanon was always refreshing and I could feel vigorous at heart; the marvelous light-scape of Lebanon remained shining forever within my internality as the light of encounter with noble souls of people. Today that wind of Lebanon was revived at heart and I was greatly moved. Souls of people all over the world were dynamically moving around as a wind and aroma for each soul. Transcending special distance, we were unified in the world of souls. The light-scape I envisioned under the Yasaka tower coincided with this. We are heading for realizing a global peace. Thank you very much
