Episodes of the Buddha's Incarnation: Yuzu-san Edition
I think it was over ten years ago that I set a New Year's resolution: 'Delusions are delusions, but I will not have a persecution complex'.
I used to get hurt and angry at every little thing my husband said, thinking, 'I guess it's my fault anyway.'
I didn't understand what he meant, and he didn't understand what I meant by my words and actions.
Because we didn't understand each other, I was completely fed up with the way he tried to suppress me to make me submissive.
He was the perpetrator, and I was the victim.
I feel like I was always living with that mindset.
I was a poor, tragic heroine.
Back then, I would complain to my friends constantly and badmouth my husband.
(Who said that? Who said I still do that now!)
I was the virtuous me, enduring even when told unreasonable things.
I might have even thought of myself that way.
At the time, I might not have thought deeply enough to realize that I couldn't be happy in a perpetrator-victim relationship.
But I felt that things couldn't go on like this, so I set that goal.
While I set various goals every year (though I forget what they were a few months later...), I secretly keep this hidden goal of 'Delusions are delusions, but I will not have a persecution complex' in my heart.
Secretly, you know.
Quietly and secretly.
Because I tend to forget easily, you see...💧
People's interpretations are different for everyone.
Even when receiving the same words, how one perceives and interprets them is different for everyone.
It was Yuzu-san who reminded me of such an obvious thing.
Yuzu-chan is currently taking a break from Note, but she is actively participating in projects.
Where does that drive come from, I wonder❓
Yuzu-chan is greedy for things that excite her.
Rather than trying hard, is it an action born from wanting to enjoy herself?
It's amazing, isn't it?
I wonder if Yuzu-chan's way of thinking, mindset, actions, and power are all that of the Buddha?
Really, Yuzu-chan is just too amazing‼️
Even before she went on break, she participated in my project.
So, this 'Buddha's Incarnation Episode' thank-you article is forYuzu-san💖
As I was reading this article, I was flustered, thinking, 'Huh? How on earth does this make you the Buddha???' as I read on.
And then, Yuzu-chan's conclusion‼️
It's too amazing.
No.
I apologize for my lack of vocabulary, but whenever I read Yuzu-chan's articles, these words always come to mind.
'Too amazing'
From my perspective, as someone who finds it hard to feel like getting close to someone once I've come to dislike them or find them difficult, Yuzu-sama is someone who possesses the heart of a Buddha. Her articles are filled with such warm consideration and thought processes that it's as if a halo is shining from them.
'A cute mother-in-law'
I think being able to say that is a sign of a happy brain.
What do we choose?
We see what is reflected in our eyes through the filter of our hearts.
That is the power of the mind's eye.
For this power of the mind's eye, it is important to keep your heart pure.
I asked Person A and Person B to take a walk in the same park and share their impressions.
Person A's impression was full of critical, negative opinions, saying there were too many dogs, feces on the ground, and too many flowers in the beds with no sense of unity.
On the other hand, Person B's impression was full of positive points, saying they were healed by seeing many cute dogs they don't usually see, and that it was beautiful to see so many different kinds of flowers.
Although they were both looking at the same scene, their impressions were completely opposite.
This means that it depends on where you usually look and what you are conscious of.
How do you perceive things and what meaning do you give them?
How does that make your heart feel?
People who criticize will continue to have unpleasant feelings, while those who find the positive aspects will also have warm feelings.
Of course, there is no right or wrong here either, but I think it comes down to which feeling makes you happier.
I believe Yuzu-san cherishes herself and perceives things in a way that makes her feel happy.
She chose to think of people as cute rather than thinking of them as annoying, because it is easier to live that way.
Yuzu-chan, a master at finding happiness, is surrounded by kind people.
On her birthday, she received many likes and comments from many people.
And even actual gifts.
Yuzu-chan is loved by everyone and loves them back so much that you have to wonder, 'How much are you loved!?'🥰
Yuzu-chan's attitude of tackling things with all her might gives strength to many people.
You can see Yuzu-chan's kindness overflowing from this article as well.
Surely it is because she has tasted both pain and suffering...
Yuzu-chan has the power and wisdom to turn that negative energy into positive energy.
It's like the picture book I love, 'The Cat of Tomorrow'...
A skinny kitten abandoned in a park. Because it is scruffy and cries with a voice like a toad, no one pays attention to it, and it only ever meets with terrible experiences.
A moving story that depicts a figure living bravely, finding a glimmer of hope even in such misfortune!
Yuzu-chan has always found hope and lived bravely.
No, maybe not just bravely.
She has lived powerfully.
On her own two feet.
Firmly.
That is why I think she was blessed with a wonderful husband and children.
As a result, she was also able to meet a lovely mother-in-law.
That very way of thinking and living is what Buddha is.
The language of flowers for yuzu is 'healthy beauty' and 'innocent person'.
So they say.
It's perfect for Yuzu-chan💖
However, however.
There is also a 'Black Yuzu'.
This is a paid magazine, though.
I would like to introduce it.
Yuzu-chan is currently unleashing Black Yuzu in her paid magazine.
…or so she says, but it's not black at all~🖐️
Yuzu-chan is patient and a hard worker.
She may have arrived at such a way of thinking and background due to past experiences, but I can't help but wish that she won't push herself too hard now, and that she can just spend her time happily and leisurely…
After all, the flower language is healthy beauty.
Be healthy and beautiful‼️
Yuzu-chan.
Thank you so much for participating in my project, even with your health concerns💖
Yuzu-chan's way of thinking and living gives everyone great power and healing.
Thank you so much🥰
Please enjoy your note and real life in a relaxed and easygoing way without pushing yourself too hard😘
Thank you for reading until the end😊
Thank you for the happiness💖
Inner peace💕
