Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality . Wake Up and Live!

3.11

By Laura and Den

One year ago.
3.11
A devastating earthquake and tsunami hit the northeastern part of Japan.
Many lives were taken, many families were split apart, and many homes were washed away.
15,000 casualties | 27,000 injured | 3,000 missing

One year later.
We 
want to thank the world, our neighbors, brave volunteers, and many who contributed and helped the unfortunate overcome such a disaster this past year with open arms 
hope that such a disaster will never happen again.
hope for the safety of our friends and family.
hope to remember those that have passed away and suffered losses.
hope that the world stays united and helps each other when such disastrous events happen
hope not to take life for granted
hope that everybody can have a tomorrow

Sora
Confused? why is this guy wearing make up?
This is my good friend Sora and he was brave enough to volunteer to get make-up done on his face when the Kyoto School of Hair and Make-up  volunteers came to visit our school.

今日は雪です。

ZENKO.

Zenko「善狐」, is one of the two classifications of kitsune (fox spirit/spiritual entity/youkai). Zenko foxes are benevolent celestial foxes associated with the god Inari (kami of fertility, agriculture, rice, foxes). Kitsune have the power to ward off evil and serve as a guardian spirit.
