継続は力なり。
(keizoku wa chikara nari).
don't give up. continue to hold on.
perseverance after a setback is
its own kind of strength...
japan has been amazing.
the people, the land, the culture.
lately, i've missed home
& my loved ones.
loneliness has found
a little nook in my soul.
a bit of bad news has
shaken my happiness.
...but as soon as sorrow seems unbearable,
something unexpectedly beautiful happens & lifts my spirits back up:
today my precious student fell asleep on my lap & snuggled with me throughout an entire class.
at the supermarket, i was holding too many bags & an old woman helped me with my groceries.
i saw these gorgeous origami tied to a bamboo post at a nearby shrine (photo).
yep, every thing's gonna be alright.
