I received numerous gifts and messages for this occasion. And a longtime, good friend sent me a fantastic assortment of beers. I wonder if that is because she has known me for a long time.

These are my calligraphic works I would like to give to my long-time valued friend. She had always been good to me and was really good to my late mother in her last days. Thus, I would like to give these to her as a token my great thankfulness but it is too difficult for us to meet in person at the moment.

I received wonderful thank-you gifts from a very good friend who I sent a small box of chocolate to last month. What made me this happy is that I found so many “cherry blossoms” in the big box, only a part of which is in the photo. My name as a calligrapher has the letter 櫻 or cherry, cherry tree or cherry blossom, in it.

I quite suddenly received a variety of gifts; baked goods, meat boiled down in soy, rice crackers and what not. There was nothing special about the day. Only, she sends me something good and special from time to time.

These white azaleas are from my very important friend who could be called my soul mate. She meant them for the memory of my late mother.
I was pleasantly surprised to find out the flower languages of white azaleas suit really well to this scene.
“I am happy to be loved by you.”
“Contentment”

I wrote these for a long-time good friend. She was very considerate of my mother in her late life. Although many years have passed since we first met, she still sends me seasonal gifts. These are to express thankfulness to her for those presents and wishing good fortune in the future for both of us, I used votive picture tablets as material.
Gratitude

I did these as gifts to be enclosed in a letter to someone. For, people usually associate folding fans with good luck because they spread out wide toward the end.
