This song played on my wedding day. This month I will have been married 8 years. I love you, Hiromu. Happy anniversary. 💒 この歌は私の結婚式の日に演奏されました。 今月私は結婚して8年になります。 愛してる、ひろむ。 結婚記おめでとうございます。
My Memorial Day: play with kids and make a jasmine vine wreath. 🇺🇸私のアメリカのメモーリアルの日:子供たちと遊んで、ジャスミンのつるの花輪を作りましました。
🇯🇵語➡️🇺🇸語: “However, I am always searching for something or someone.”
Children’s Day 🎏子供の日
🇯🇵 ⬇️Spring is when the world comes back to life. In my American culture, this is traditionally marked by the resurrection of Christ. In Okinawa, this time of year is marked by a similar tradition: shimi. Paradoxically, these “grave” festivals are both a way to remember the ancestor(s) that gave us life, physical or spiritual. 🇯🇵🐣🇺🇸 春は世界が生き返る時です。 私のアメリカの文化では、これは伝統的にキリストの復活によって特徴づけられます。 沖縄では、この時期に同様の伝統があります。それは清明です。 逆説的ですが、これらの祭りは両方とも、私たちに肉体的または精神的な生命を与えた祖先を思い出す方法です。Happy Easter or “Wester”, Okinawa!
