In my dream of this morning, I was with my mom in my parents’ house in Japan. My daughter was with us. My mom threw up several times in front of us.

This evening I went for a long distance walking with my friend. We walked 6 miles. It took us 1.5 hours. It was a very nice walk.

Today my daughter had a wonderful surprise. She received a birthday card from her Japanese friend. The card was her handmade and contained her kind message to my daughter. I hope they will keep their friendship even after they become grownups. It is rare to meet nice friends. They share the birthday month. We wentContinue reading “Early Birthday card 11/23/2019”

I woke up feeling happy. I remember my family spirits were with me in my dream. They told me not to worry about the rent increase. They also told me not to take it personal. They reminded me that the previous rent amount was lower than the market value and that we could stay forContinue reading “Do not rush 11/22/2019”
