In the Mighty Sea

Sounds very interesting – reading about Japan and Tokyo. So far I haven’t had a wish to visit – maybe I will get. Someday!
I have had a special wish to visit Tibet, Inka land in South America, Aborigine land in Australia … but none of these are the country I wrote about earlier …where to – my dream country – I would like to move.
I will give a clue …

my heart
sliding in the mighty sea – away
to find my turtle

… now I think it’s very easy … I could give one more clue … but … no … perhaps tomorrow.

Japan is also surrounded by the mighty sea.

between
the mighty sea and mountain tops
all these cherry blossoms

On Saturday I will tell you about my ”dream country” …

The Mighty Sea

Carpe Diem #1142 Honshu, the ”main island”.


Memorable Kiss

I also want to see Matsuo Basho as my master of haiku.

a day of quiet gladness,

I have had this kind of day today – a day of gladness – together with my oldest grandchild. Not exactly quiet but in great and deep confidence about life and sharing. Talking about important issues and feelings. In connection characterized by love and understanding. The most important life values I can imagine. How thankful I can be – and I am.
Everybody reflect about the question:
What’s the meaning of life?
My answer is:
To raise children who takes (very) good care of their – also other’s –  children and raise them to good and caring humans.
… oh my wonderful grandchildren … oh my dear children … you have done so well!
above all tops
no mountain can reach – true
humanity to find
I have my two worlds and I am so thankful for them. My roots in Sweden – so very deep – I can follow back when starting the records – early 1600. And my step out into the gem of Europe – center of culture and performing arts – a ”melting pot of all people” – as I see Budapest in Hungary. As you know I find people outstanding the most interesting .. and in Budapest I can mingle anonymously as much as I ever want. I love it! I appreciate it so much. Soon I will take off again! Lots of events planned.
But … I think you would never guess where in our world I would like to move if I could have my inner wish come true …. Try! … You have a chance to guess now.
dear mountain
keeping a mother’s deepest
of all truth
… and I promise my warmest hug and a memorable kiss for the right answer!

Carpe Diem: #1141 Japan, the journey begins.
