Monono Aware

Before I knew it, time had passed and the peach blossoms had quietly fallen.

After the peach blossoms finish blooming, the cherry blossoms begin to bloom.
Yet the cherry blossoms also fall in an instant.

At times like these, we Japanese feel a sense of mono no aware.

I don’t know how to translate it perfectly into English.
But like these flowers, we feel that life itself is very fleeting.

Looking at those blossoms, I found myself thinking that humans are foolish.

Why do we kill one another?
The seasons pass, life will pass, and one day I too will be gone from this world.

That is the law of nature.
Why do we break those laws?

Handmade Cheesecake

イメージ
Yesterday, I visited my father's house. He is living with my brother. Since my father is getting older, my brother usually cooks for both of them. When he tries a new recipe, he often watches videos by popular Japanese YouTubers. This is the handmade cheesecake he made using one of those YouTube recipes. When you buy cheesecake in Japan, most of them are relatively soft. However, the one my brother made was dense, rich, and absolutely delicious. An American friend of mine once told me that she had the most delicious cake in the world in Japan. I’m not sure whether Japan is the best place in the world to eat cake or not, but you can easily find very good cakes in Japan — even at local supermarkets.

Origami Cranes for Health and Peace

イメージ
One of my friends has fallen ill and is now in the hospital. As her coworkers, we are praying for her recovery and have started making paper cranes out of origami. In Japan, paper cranes are symbols of longevity and happiness. They are also widely known around the world as a symbol of peace. This meaning comes from the story of Sadako Sasaki, who died at the age of 12 from leukemia caused by the atomic bombing. She was exposed to radiation when she was two years old. Anyone who comes across this blog, please close your eyes for a few seconds and imagine little Sadako folding paper cranes, wishing for her recovery.
