Summer, on Instagram.
Yes it's summer. August in Tokyo is probably the least fave month, the heat and extreme humidity take away all my energy... but actually the last couple of days have been actually quite nice and I wish it will always like this the entire month.

This morning I thought of Nagasaki. I thought of my grandparents who were there so close in the city, as newlyweds, who saw the flash and the blackness, who then survived. I thought of what happened there 67 years ago. Made my heart ache.

Listening to Priscilla Ahn makes me feel calm.


Happy Summer to you all♡

  1. This brings tears to my eyes. Pieces of our history can be so sad. It is good to never forget, so that maybe we can remember and learn from those mistakes. It is through our compassion and our art that hopefully we can make a difference in any way we can. You inspire me so much throughout my day... your good energy and beautiful creations make a difference!
