Wow, I decided to post something this morning and discovered that the blogger.com website template has changed and things look more.... well colorful... hahaha.. Guess it has been awhile since I last posted anything... Besides the same ole same ole, things in Japan have been good. It`s still summer but it`s been raining for four days straight. Go figure... And the monsoon season is supposed to be over... Guess nature likes to flip the script every now and then...
Being that I am leaving in about two weeks to go back to the States, there are so many things that need to be done before I depart. I have to sell all my furniture, write letters of appreciation to family and friends, and of course say my good-byes... It seems like I have been saying my farewells a lot these past couple of years. I have said my goodbye to friends, family, and former ways of life... Of course some things never change, but my prior perspective and insight certainly has. I feel blessed to be able to have seen and met so many different people and things during my stay in Japan. It`s funny how some goodbyes symbolize the ending of something or some phase in one`s life, while other goodbyes symbolize the renaissance of a person or time. Not that I am saying that I am reborn, but in a sense, I am...There are some things I have come to realize that will forever remain engraved on the aging tree trunk of my memory.
I am looking forward to seeing everyone back in the States. =D Pass me the double double... naw let`s make it a 6x6.
