A very close friend of mine moved to a new apartment. May the new surroundings give her a new frame of mind. She, I am certain, will only see a bright future in her life in the days ahead.
This phrase means “starting fresh”.

I enjoyed watching a movie about a famous illusionism artist; his life, art, and mathematics, as well.
Now I have a variety of things on my mind, but here I will only say it was a lot of fun.
I think people want to be cheated in not a very serious way, that is.

『書縁』
“Connections between people created through calligraphy”
They come from all directions. From one direction and then, another and they encounter each other and link together. As I am getting older and older, those connections are becoming more and more intricately interrelated.

I chose this phrase as a motif for my calligraphy work from a website about Zen words. I learned the passage says that falling flowers, flowing water, moving clouds and sound of flutes don’t adhere to anything; they just come and disappear without leaving any traces.

The seasonal phrase for the latter half of March is this, “sparrows start building nests”. Because I live quite near Tadasunomori, every morning I hear lots of birds chirping and singing. Birds have always been familiar to me. And suddenly I had this idea that this deserves to be celebrated. That is why I took the photo of my work with a glass with some Japanese saké.
