[Notes] 13. Once-in-a-lifetime encounter

Outside the window today, it is dim and looks like rain.
The sound of a piano on a holiday morning.
I cannot hear the sound of the rain, but
the sad piano melody seems to be playing the sky of today.

While spending such a quiet morning time,
I am writing a little on note now.

If you ask how I have been spending my time lately,
I think I have been meeting many people I haven't seen in a long time.

It is not that I consciously tried to do so,
but it happened in a natural flow. It is a mysterious thing, isn't it?
I suppose it was just that kind of cycle.

Being able to meet after a long time, feeling nostalgic and happy,
I felt with every encounter that I have spent time that allowed for such reunions,
and remembering the past time again, it felt precious.

I went dancing for the first time in 8 years,
and I was so happy to reunite that I hugged them without thinking.
I am making it into a note article, but it is still a draft.
It is almost finished, but it is stuck at the final touches, haha.
I will post it someday.

The three sisters went to our parents' hometown.
My mother's family home where we returned every year when we were children.
We visited the grave, met our cousins, met our aunt,
and visited the nostalgic streets and the homes of our cousins.
Many memories overflowed.

I attended a farewell party for my previous job. Nostalgic faces.
Everyone's smiles represent the present.
I thought I might not be able to see them again,
but I am happy for the grateful opportunity to meet again,
and I have nothing but gratitude.

A station I got off at for the first time in a while.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, I met with a colleague from my previous job.
She is a capable woman. Someone like my SV,
who always tells me things I can learn from.
Let's meet again!
I am happy that we can continue this kind of relationship
even after we have parted ways.

The manager of a bar I used to go to often a long time ago.
A shop I used to go to so often that I could go alone easily.
A few years ago, he went independent and opened his own shop.
I hadn't been able to go for a long time, but unexpectedly,
the timing to visit appeared, and I went to the shop alone immediately.
I was happy that he was surprised and pleased by the sudden visit.

And today, I will meet a nostalgic friend again.
Is it okay after surfing first thing in the morning? You're still doing it!
I remembered the time when we used to surf together.
I was surprised by the message, but I am happy to be able to talk again.
An old, old friend who lives nearby. Like half-family.

Encounters with people I haven't seen in a long time.
I wonder if it was that kind of astrological cycle ♡

I have been spending my days feeling things like that.

While remembering the nostalgic time spent with those people,
and feeling the present of each of them.

To once-in-a-lifetime encounters

Today as well, just like any other day♪
