hello winter

autumn leaves

summertime

sakura

In Japan, sakura or cherry blossom is an enduring symbol of the beauty and transience of life. During spring, the flowers bloom and usually fall within a week, before the leaves come out. It’s been sublime seeing Sapporo accentuated with various shades of white and pink.

Beautiful, yet all-too-brief... like life itself.

"All flesh is like grass
and all its glory like the flower of grass.
The grass withers,
and the flower falls,
but the word of the Lord remains forever."
1 Peter 1:24-25
