Sakura


With the beauty of the cherry blossoms comes the weight of decisions, the possible point of no return. The freedom when one decides what is best without regrets. The liberation. For I am a free woman and I shall remain so till the day I die.

I celebrate hanami like a true admirer of beauty. I drink the sake, eat the sushi, I have all the time in the world to search for the flowers and contemplate them like is my first time. But it is my first time, it is my first time observing them with these eyes. Only in Japan was it possible for me to learn that smelling flowers, watching leaves and seeking abandoned temples should always make it into my to-do list. And I am so happy because beauty requires change and change means evolution. I am in a constant state of evolution and that is good.
