Happy New Year!
I hope the year has started with good vibes for you. I’m also sending you good vibes, right now. 2018 is here, 2 years to the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. Strange thing to remember, but I’m actually looking forward to that.
January should be celebrated. There are so many fresh new starts. You can do anything in January. For me, I’m greeting you with a Short Story, neatly compiled into an e-book for your enjoyment. I hope you enjoy it!
The title of this short story is ‘Do You Know?‘. This is a story about Saki
Masashi, a Tokyo University art student, in his final year. His powerful older brother suddenly pulls him out of Tokyo Uni., and sends him to the U.S. to enroll into Alexander University. Saki has had to deal with his older brother treating him this way all his life. In response to his brother’s cold shoulder attitude, Saki decides to fill his life with warm, memorable moments.
I loved writing this story because it was about seeking out those moments in life that make you happy. Smiles can come from things, (nothing feels right unless I have coffee from my favorite chipped mug) activities, (I garden to find my smiles when they disappear), and people. I’m sure there are those people who fill you up with warmth, just by them calling you or sending you a message to ask about soy sauce. (Hehehe)
