2020.6.28

It was a rainy day and I stayed at home all day long. 

I felt lucky because it was fine and did not rain yesterday and I could wear kimono without worrying anything.

I slept a lot to recover from the fatigue.

There were two groups, each of them consisted of 5 meisters. I was the second of the afternoon group.

Since I arrived about a half hour earlier, I visited the shrine and prayed for today's success.

Each person had 20 minutes.

I had lunch at a Japanese style restaurant in the precinct.

I needed the flexibility during my explanation.

I saw some friends as audience.

Many people liked my kimono style today.

After the tour we had dinner at a Chinese restaurant. We had a very good time.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

2020.6.26

It was fine.

I finished reading an ebook finally. It should be read one item per one day to cultivate. I read only when I was on a train in the morning and in the evening for seven days contents each.

They say there was a concert of Southern All Stars, a popular music group at the Yokohama arena without inviting anybody yesterday. It's been 42 years since their debut. Since it was online live, they say about 500,000 people enjoyed watching. If it was a real live concert, the maximum number should be 17,000 people. 

Many things are possible in this time, aren't they?

2020.6.25

It was heavily raining in the morning, therefore I decided to use the big umbrella, but after all I only used it for a short time.

Today I went out for lunch at a Japanese restaurant with three ladies. One of them will leave the office at the end of this month so this was the farewell luncheon. We enjoyed the ladies' sushi lunch set.

One of my zoom friends started selling the tea ceremony lesson movie called Sado Retreat. This is a very good idea.  I hope to do something like this in the future.

To my lucky there is a dining hall in the building where my office is, so when it rains, I sometimes eat there. It was around 13:15 when I went there, and there was only one set menu left. It was a variety set and the main dish was three fried foods such as fish, meat and cream croquette.

On my way home I dropped at Yokosukachuo to buy some stationery.

Official visit to the Hie Shrine was really impressive.

Three years ago of today I became a Reiki Teacher.

Today I became a Power Spot Meister.

June 20 seems another birthday for me.

Today is the most powerful day of this year which is a combination of ichiryumanbaibi (一粒万倍日) which is the day when one grain becomes 10000 times, and tenshabi (天赦日), which is the day when the heaven forgives everything.

I hope someday I will guide foreign visitors to the shrines to introduce Japanese beautiful and unique culture.

There are 50 negative cards, and there are 50 positive cards. Among them I drew one of each. The negative card was Possessiveness and the positive card was Vision. It was very interesting because when I submitted the pre-questionnaire, they thought I should draw "vision" card.  There was another participant. She drew Separation and Mastery.  There were something we can share. So these four words were very meaningful.

In the afternoon I went to Yokohama to see a Chinese movie "So Long, My Son" which got the best actor and best actress awards at The 69th Berlin International Film Festival. Japanese title is Arishi hi no uta (在りし日の歌), which literally means The song which was sung when he was alive. Quite different from the original title, isn't it?
