and said to him, "Where are you?"   with " Wander " Japanese calligraphy



Glow of early summer brings joy to us.
Yes, crystal clear light.

The spirit will be allowed to extend to it.




Yes. Possibilities are endless.
If, you come up with it.

Humans might be living in a world of imagination.





 遊びをせんとや生まれけむ   戯れせんとや生まれけむ
   遊ぶ子供の声聞けば  わが身さへこそゆるがるれ

 仏は常にいませども  うつつならぬぞあはれなる
   人の音せぬ暁に  ほのかに夢に見え給ふ

 梁塵秘抄  編者 後白河法皇 (1127 - 1192)


 I was born to play.    I was born to flirt.
   when I hear the voice of a playing child,  my mind and body seem to be shaken.

 Buddha is always present.    but I can't see the profound.
   in the dawn without the sign of life,  faintly visible in a dream.

 Ryōjin Hishō   editor  Emperor Go-Shirakawa (1127 - 1192)




   " 遊 " (yū, or asobu). It is translated as play, wander, roam, travel, etc.
   This character is written by Kanzi, Regular script.

   Etymology : Phono-semantic compound
    phonetic 斿 (move) + semantic 辵 (walk)

This character reminds the smile of a child to me. And I feel the relaxed atmosphere.








すべての訓練は、当座は、喜ばしいものとは思われず、むしろ悲しいものと思われる。
しかし後になれば、それによって鍛えられる者に、平安な義の実を結ばせるようになる。

ヘブル人への手紙 第12章 第11節


All chastening seems for the present to be not joyous but grievous;
yet afterward it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been exercised thereby.

Book 58 Hebrews 12:11




God bless you.
