I live in Nagoya, and last month, I took the train to Arako River Park to see the lavender. I experienced the healing power of nature in two ways. One way was seeing the beautiful colors. The other way was smelling the flowers. The lavender’s scent could be smelled even from a distance. The two experiences helped me feel relaxed and refreshed. This was also the best time to see hydrangeas in the park. When I go out to see living things like plants, birds, and fish in a nearby river or park, I sing the phrase, “We are all living…” from the song “Put Your Hands up to the Sun,” with lyrics by Yanase Takashi and music by Izumi Taku.   (121 words) You can send me a comment or your own story at jaremaga@gmail.com
