The most beautiful thing about Spring in Japan isn’t the Sakuras.
It’s the warmness that comes after a long harsh winter.
The gatherings, the picnics, the hanami-s, and the scenes of people who smiled guilelessly at the sight of nature’s beauty.
The reminder that yet another year has passed. And the questioning of life: What have we done so far? What is happiness?
It is nature's gesture to us that we are still alive and connected in this reality, that change is possible and we have every chance, every right and responsibility to make a difference.
Spring brings renewal to every single life in every domain. But only if we breathe in the blessings of nature and reflect upon it.
#Hanami: hana means "flower", mi means "to see or sight-seeing"
