Today the sky was blue excellently. The temperature was like early summer. I went out to see the cherry blossoms at the near park that was famous for many chreey trees.
The cherry blossoms were at their best even now, but they began to drop. Full bloom is longer than usual years in this year, because recently it was no rain.
I sat down under big cherry trees, and the cherry blossoms dropped like snow in the blue sky. It was wonderful and fabulous experience. The cherry blossoms usually begin to drop sooner than other flowers, for example azaleas, tulips, roses and so on.
Maybe short term of beauty or frail happiness of the cherry blossoms agree with a sense of beauty of Japanese people. Buddhism says that everything is transient. It's true, and human beings are same. And so we should live now as best we can. Nobody knows what will happen tomorrow.
