Stories read on a rainy day and familiar spring flowers🌸

It is raining today☔

It is a shame that I cannot see the cherry blossoms under a blue sky, even though they have finally reached almost full bloom,

but because they are in full bloom, I wonder if I will be able to see them again on Monday before they fall☀️
(It looks like it will rain tomorrow too💦💦)

Cherry blossoms in Omiya on the 14th
The cherry blossoms along the nearby row of trees yesterday. They were about eighty percent in bloom, I think.

Since I couldn't go for my morning walk due to the rain, I spent some time reading the short story from the "Monogatari Coffee" set that was sent to me\(^_^)/

It is a short story, but it warmed my heart☆彡
Please do enjoy the story from the link below📚

[With the Warmth of Memories] by Saki Yoshitama

The protagonist works hard every day. They spend their days exhausted, but suddenly felt like treating themselves. With that thought in mind, they took a detour on a different path than usual and caught sight of a cafe that was "not stylish at all."
"I'll make my treat to myself a coffee at this cafe."
Seeing the protagonist's exhausted appearance, the cafe owner taught them a magic spell to use when feeling tired or struggling.

The magic spell is...
From here on, I would like to attach it just as it is in the story.
The owner's words are below☟☟☟

"Close your eyes and drink your coffee while thinking of happy memories from the past. With every sip, bring various memories back to your mind. If you do that, you will feel refreshed by the time you finish drinking."

From "With the Warmth of Memories"

Closing their eyes, the protagonist felt memories surface little by little with every sip of coffee.
After remembering various things, when they drank the last sip, "tears were overflowing."

The owner looked at the protagonist with concern and apologized, but the protagonist said:

"No, it's not that I'm sad. Rather, I feel incredibly happy... I really feel energized."

From "With the Warmth of Memories"

The owner's words after that.

"It might sound arrogant, but I think that people who have many happy memories, and people who can properly remember them, will be okay no matter how painful things get."

From "With the Warmth of Memories"

Hearing those words, the protagonist thinks.
There are painful memories I don't want to remember. But

...When I extract only the happy memories like this, what comes to mind is gratitude for the people around me. I felt that as long as I don't forget this feeling, I will be okay.

...I realized once again how blessed I am with people. It's all about happy memories and memories with the people around me. At first, I wondered if I could really recall so many happy memories one after another, but when I tried it, quite a lot came to mind.

From "With the Warmth of Memories"

The end of this story is like something out of a drama🎵
It turns out the master and the protagonist were classmates.

But that dream-like story soaked into my heart so cleanly.

Coincidentally, I received an email this morning saying that "Monogatari Coffee" is on its way.
I look forward to enjoying the new coffee and story (#^.^#)

Now, about the real me (lol)
Yesterday was also almost a full day of meetings.
But even though there might be difficult times, I felt excited to put our heads together with everyone on the team and discuss the future (^^)/

What I am doing now cannot be called a job.
Because I don't have any income from it right now (lol)
But as we meet more often and continue our discussions, I have come to feel happy that I can contribute to the community in ways that I can.

The "creating a space = connection" that I consider important has started in reality too (*^^*)

Although I accepted the role reluctantly at first (lol), now that I have taken it on, I want to make it the best I can and fulfill the role to the best of my ability💕

🌸Finally, here are the flowers in my home that I photographed yesterday🌸

The magnolia is in full bloom!
The tulips are also starting to show their yellow flowers🌷
Moss phlox. I can't see the pink moss phlox yet💦

Today, I think I'd like to take it a bit easy, drink some coffee, read a book, and stroll through the town of note (*^-^*)
