It was rainy today.
I got a sad news today. My professor from university passed away the day before yesterday. When I knew it by email, it was already time of the wake and I could not attend. There will be a funeral tomorrow morning, but I will go to Kyoto tomorrow and I cannot attend it either. 
He was a psychology teacher. 
When I was a high school student, I wanted to be a counselor so that I took entrance examinations for psychology major, but it was in vain. So I majored in International Relations instead. But I still wanted to study psychology, so I took all the psychology related courses offered there and he taught every course. 
After graduating from university, when I was a teacher of a junior high school, I was still thinking of studying, and he cared about me. 
When I was in the USA, he called me. 
When I published the book, he was very pleased. 
He remembered the things about me which even I forgot. 
He always encouraged me. 
I feel bad that I cannot do as much as he expected to. 
Thank you for everything.
Please rest in peace.
