――――a red apricot branch protruding from the wall

When the sunshine was brilliant, I dreamed of that good story, which had been illuminated by the sunshine until no trace remained, leaving only the tear stains on my pillow. At this moment, I organized my thoughts. My thoughts, under the bright sunshine, became slightly clearer, and my mind also became much more awake. Only then did I realize that those good stories do not belong to my present self, but to my dreaming self, my departed self. This is like――――――

All endings have already been written.

Not all flowers bloom.

They can all bear fruit.

Some exist for the sake of beauty.

Having beauty,

Not necessarily all beautiful results.

But, there are beautiful flowers.

Why is it not necessary for the result to be beautiful?

At this moment, I have already forgotten.

What kind of good story was that?

I just forgot how I was at the beginning.

And how the beginning was.

It was in the early spring of 'the grass looks green from afar but up close there is none'.

Or in the summer of 'the lotus flowers reflect the sun, uniquely red'.

The poet says: No matter how I seek,

Youthful time passes like smoke and clouds.

It gently left my present line.

Those beautiful flowers'

Gradually fading into the dusk of sunset.

Now I open those yellowed years.

That diary containing the fragrance of youthful dreams.

I read it over and over.

No matter how I try, I cannot read the original.

The appearance of youth.

"Jasmine seems

to have no particular season

by day and by night

constantly opening tiny

fragrant buds……

That tiny bud

is still the original appearance.

"What you want cannot be obtained; that is better than anything." Yes, what should I obtain? You look at the clouds in the sky; how beautiful they are! Those beautiful clouds, why must you obtain them? If you truly want to obtain those beautiful clouds, it is not Wind, it is Rain, it is frost and snow, or hail, it is……………………..

"Once you obtain what you want, you will then want something else." Have I obtained it already? I have already obtained much, but I still want to obtain much; I am striving to obtain much.

At this moment, I, like many friends, want to obtain, want to obtain something never obtained before, especially like my friend who studies punctuation, what they hope to obtain might be "a beautiful blessing, a warm greeting, a kind smile, and of course understanding……."

A beautiful blessing, a warm greeting—this request is too low. But understanding—this request is still quite high……..

I then feel satisfied; I have obtained satisfaction.
