I had been trying to find a picture of the fireworks in Japan that used to take place August 1 at PL headquarters – instead I found this picture .. which is a riot of colour and shows “nature” in one pf her finest moods. The fireworks were to show the awesome delight of watching the amazing artistry of fire in the skies. Why… why was I wanting to showcase electric, dynamic and soul satisfying visuals.. because I wanted to show you how JOY can look, feeling it is hard to capture in words.. because everyone has a different way of using words.. but we all catch our breath when we see fireworks against the midnight black of the skies. or a bouquet of nature’s finest beauties artistically displayed against a clear blue sky.
I am very blessed that I have happiness and love in my life. It is our decision whether to focus on what makes us unhappy or to live in a state of happiness. I choose “HAPPY”… this = contentment….
“Accept everything with appreciation. Appreciate not just people and society, but everything that comes your way. You will experience a deeper joy in life.” (PL 2012.21)

I was in Japan in 2016. I was surprised by the great contrast between nature, the traditional and the modern or futuristic. Thank you!
Yes, the summer firework festivals along with the o-bon festivals make a pleasant respite from the intense heat and humidity, despite the fact that most are outside!
I’m in England right now so am missing out this year, but yesterday my wife in Tokyo messaged me to say she was in Gaien-mae at one of the stadia waiting for the hanabi festival to begin. In the meantime she was ‘enjoying craft beer and yakitori’. Jealous? I was !!
LOL teach you to leave her behind… she knows how to have fun!!!
