Welcomed by hydrangea flowers

Since some time ago on the way back from Narita airport, we always drop in at Jindaiji temple. It was known for a sad romance between a young couple of Koguryo and Japanese in ancient times. Also my family has been traditionally associated with it as its home temple. The ceremony 49 days after the funeral of my mother was also held there. So when I visited there I always became sad recalling memories of the past. However though I was surrounded by deep greening trees and temple breezes , I could simply enjoy welcoming hydrangea flowers. My sensitivity has indeed changed. 
As I watched news in Japanese media most things seemed to face a dead end. However I knew that we were living in the new era where the deepest wishes of humankind were being accomplished in the actual world when we were true to our innermost nature. I was grateful that I felt hundreds and thousands of powers were helping our activities.  .
