[588] Together (^_^) - 2008/03/19 (Wed)

We came for a visit, to Jouetsu. *

Man oh man, it's been a lifetime of memories since graduation, and it's just a melody but it's a live, and every single year, I get tense.

Even people who do it, you know, we get a little starry eyed, too. (^_^) Remembering how I was back then, I get all choked up. (^_^)

To people in the new era after this one, if we can just boost those dreams a little bit, those are the thoughts we have when we perform.

For recent graduates, believe in the infinite possibilities sleeping within you, and go running into your life from here on out.

Also, even for those of you like me, who think, how many years has it been since graduation? How many decades? In pre-history? (^_^) Let's all continue to chase those dreams that we've got a little more work on, shall we?

'A human life is but once' don't you know!

P.S. People who don't drink coffee are surprisingly numerous. I'd be long dead without coffee. (^^;) Coffee drunk right when you wake up is really the best. (^_^)


[ * Jouetsu is an area on the Japan Sea side of Japan, including such wonderful vistas as Niigata. as chingu brought to my attention and wikipedia assures me, jouetsu (上越) is in niigata prefecture, on the sea of japan, and is apparently known for its snowfall. it holds the japan record for largest snowfall (3.77 m, which is over twelve feet(!), in 1945). congratulations all you recent graduates! ]
