#222 The Need for Grounding This Year

Happy New Year to you all! I think there are many people, especially right now in Japan, for whom such words do not come out smoothly this year… I am definitely one of them.

In Japan, the New Year started with an earthquake on New Year's Day and a plane accident on the 2nd, so there has been no time for calmness in my heart.

I went to my relatives' house for the first time in 4 years and we shared each other's updates and stories.

I then went to visit my close friends for the first time in a year, and we were also able to share our stories with each other.

A time to reflect on our roots and nurture our friends.

I am keenly aware of how important these times are.

And not forgetting to be thankful.

The keyword in my mind is grounding.

How can I ride the air currents while remaining grounded and flexible?

I do what I have to do one by one.

The rest, I think, is how I can do my best according to the situation at that time.

I will be starting my corporate work in a little while and I also started corresponding with my coaching clients.

I hope to get focused and enjoy what life has to offer this year.

I wish you all a peaceful moment.

May this be another week with lots of smiles on your faces.
