As Michael Jackson said, the rise and fall happen in every person whoever they are. Even if blooms beautifully, all flowers will get it. In the human who will hope to get the fame and money and dream come true, that also one unavoidable fact which someday will come. But, why not give our will up cause of that? Even if we know that will come some day, it not gonna be the reason to give it up. The important point is whether we can say that " It was true " or not. The most meaningful property is what we have experienced and its experiences is exactly gonna be what nobody can get it, and it'll be the difference of the personality of you, and that personality going to be the personal magnetism, and that effects makes your life more happier things with wonderful and warm people. So, just what I mean is that " don't abdicate the will to hope to get your successful life ". That is excuselessly what you can do and what you should do. Only the person who challenged own life, can be the flower.

COUNTRYSIDE

▷DIARY

First, I promptly apologies about long time no uploaded. So, I've been thinking about whether I should post here about my private side. And finally I derived the answer and I started this new categories named " Diary ". Literally this is my private side on my lifetime. 

So, Spring has come to Japan, and we can see the cherry blossoms in full bloom anywhere with pink color such as cheek of the infant. that effect makes us as if like we saw the infant. don't you? Be admired in the film of Funny Face by Audrey Hepburn, Pink bring the happiness to human's subconscious. 

This is the Plum tree, but I think Plum makes me feel more japanese esthetics more than cherry blossom. that cause we can't see the plum tree anyplace except japan. that's the reason of it. and especially, the color hues and contrast of plum and cherry blossom to have a depth with the emotion of Quote-unquote " wa bi sa bi ".

I guess you thought I'm in hawaii or in some resort place by see this pict. but, I'm not. this is my grand father's garden. and of course my grandpa is not the man who always wear the aloha shirt and Ray-Ban. I also don't know why they planted such a giant palm trees. The height of these will be 5th floor of the mansion. and my house also have an one palm tree. and sometimes rub the electric wire. 

I hope this is the last time of posted the cherry blossoms picture in this year! it's enough, right?
