On Monday, January 28, 2008, Jun, Hiroki, Yuki, Kazuko, Yoshie and I went to a beautiful onsen (natural hot springs) just outside of Fukuoka City in Kyushu (Southwest Japan). The beautiful surroundings, the healing waters of the earth and loving, open hearted souls all combined to create a deep feeling of joy and gratitude and affection. What can be more important in life than to share this kind of time together.... to give the best parts of our hearts and minds to each other freely and without inhibition?
