In response to my request for favorite character(s) and word(s), someone suggested “beauty”. I suppose some other people may have thought of the same letter.

I often practice copying the works that my teacher left. I enjoy copying his Chinese character pieces, however, copying works in small kana letters is really very hard and I am seldom successful to produce something passable.

私はよく先生が遺されたお作品の臨書をしますが、漢字のはまだよろしいのですが、仮名作品の臨書は難しくて、納得のいくものはなかなか出来ません。

“North wind sweeps the leaves away”. This is the seasonal phrase for this time of year. Surely, it has become cold suddenly today. And the fallen leaves fluttering on the ground look cold.

This month I saw many families with beautifully dressed up children in Shimogamo Shrinenear my house. The event of “The Seven-Five-Three Festival”
(a festival for 3-year-old boys and girls, 5-year-old boys and 7-year-old girls), which originally meant to wish for the children’s healthy growth and happiness and set on the November 15th, seems to become more and more important and glamorous. Even for me, my parents dressed me in a kimono and took me to that famous shrine. It was long time ago, but I still have some photos of myself in kimono.
The photos here show the trees of autumn foliage on the shrine’s premise.

今月は家の近くの下鴨神社でも綺麗に着飾った子供たちやそのご家族をよく見かけました。元々は子供の健康や幸福を祈るための七五三も益々盛大になっていく気がします。私も一応やってもらって、7歳のときの下鴨神社での着物姿の写真が残っています。
この写真は、下鴨神社境内の今の紅葉した木々です。

It is with pleasure for me to announce that I was allowed to participate in the thirtieth commemorable show of the Postcard Collection. This is my fourth participation in this particularly enjoyable event, which I really would like you to visit.
The first photo shows one of the five kinds of my works that will be shown and a set for the original exhibition, “calligraphy” and “relationship” meaning relationship with others through calligraphy, a beautiful Japanese phrase that I would have never known without my calligraphy experience.

About this time last year, I went and prayed at the grand festival of Izumotaisha Shrine in Shimane Prefecture. However, this year I went to its branch in Kyoto Prefecture for its grand festival.
The written oracle I got there said something like “you must always do good, because the deity is eyeing on you all the time”. During my visit to this shrine, I found things someone left behind in the restrooms of the shrine and the station and I took both of them to proper places. I am sure I must have done the same, even if the deity wasn’t looking at my behavior, though.
The photos are the sky over the torii of the shrine and a lonely sight on my way back.

昨年はこの時期に島根県の出雲大社にお詣りしましたが、今年は京都にある分院の大祭にお詣りしました。
そこでいただいたお神籤には、「神さまはいつでも見ているから善行を心がけよ」といったことが書いてありました。この日使わせてもらったお宮さん内のトイレと駅のトイレに忘れ物がありましたので、どちらも然るべきところに届けましたが、別に神さまが見ていなくてもそうしたと思います。
写真は、このお宮さんの鳥居越しの空と帰り路に見たちょっと寂しい秋の風景です。

“A happy girl smiling broadly”. This is yet another my old piece. Its motif is my favorite phrase and my favorite image, as well.

This is the seasonal phrase for this time of year, “rainbows hide themselves and cease to be seen”. I think “a winter rainbow” sounds fantastic. But unfortunately, it never happens in reality.

I found this word in a comment on someone’s social media. Celebration before something very good happens because it is truly certain to happen even if you have no idea what kind of good thing will be happening. I think it is a nice word and a nice attitude toward life.

The other day I wrote about my old works I happened to find. The photo shows one of the others. The pieces I wrote last time was kana (system of characters invented in Japan based on Chinese characters) works while this one is kanji (Chinese characters) piece. And another thing about is it seems I had it lined. What I liked about it, I wonder?

先日古い作品がいくつか出てきましたということを書きましたが、これもその一つで、先日のものは仮名でこれは漢字ですが、わざわざ裏打ちしてもらっています。何がいいと思ったのかしら？
