“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

When you work it out too late

More goodbyes yesterday. What was even worse about one particular person is I have only just realised that they were an integral part of my life here.

Without this person I would not have settled into life in Japan's countryside. They were always willing to help me or find someone else who could. That kind of quality is so rare in people.

I feel sorry for the people who have to take this person's place. Because they will never be as good. They don't have the same kind of mentality that this person had.

On the plus side I have completely decked out my apartment with all the stuff that the leavers couldn't take with them so now it's looking NNNIIIIICCCCEEEE!!!

And I have an electric oven!!

YATTA!!
