(10-27-07) I FEEL RESTED!

Good morning, I feel great this morning! I arrived back in Tokyo yesterday and since I never adjusted to the time difference when I was in California for 10 days I had a good night of sleep!

 It’s raining and raining here in Tokyo and I understand a typhoon is on the way! It is also very humid here! Okay, I admit that I miss the warmth and sunshine of California! However, I will never use weather as an excuse for not enjoying my life! So, I will find a way to enjoy each and every precious moment of my life here and everywhere my journey in life takes me!

(10-26-07) I ARRIVED IN TOKYO TODAY!

I arrived back in Tokyo, Japan (Narita Airport) at (4:10pm)! I departed LAX about (12:45pm) and enjoyed my 11-hour flight. My flight (AA#169) was originally scheduled to depart at (12:20pm).

 

I started getting ready about (2:00am) and ended up staying up all night. I left home at about (5:10am), so I could take the train at (5:24am). The train was so fast, it only took me 15 minutes to get to the airport stop. But I had to wait almost 15 minutes for the shuttle that departed at (5:48am).

 

My flight was scheduled to depart at (6:55am) for Los Angeles, but it was delayed. I arrived in Los Angeles about (8:20am) and could see the smoke from all the fires burning around southern California in the air, but was fortunate to find clear skies near LAX (Los Angeles International Airport).

 

Upon arrival, I went to the American Airlines Admirals Club lounge and had a cup of coffee. About (9:47am), My Mom and my sister picked me up and we went to IHOP (International House of Pancakes) for breakfast. It was good to see my family even for a short visit, since I am in Tokyo most of the time these days. However, I will return to California on November 20th to enjoy the Thanksgiving Holiday with my family in Los Angeles!

SMOKING AT MCDONALDS IN JAPAN!

WHY DO THE MCDONALDS RESTAURANTS IN JAPAN ENCOURAGE CHILDREN TO COME INTO THEIR RESTAURANTS AND THEN ALLOW PEOPLE TO SMOKE ALL OVER THEM AND ENDANGER THEIR HEALTH?

(10-24-07) MEANING OF LIFE

How many of you have ever thought 
about the meaning of life? 
Have you ever asked yourself 
this question, 
what is the meaning of life?
Or is there perhaps a more 
appropriate question to ask, 
what is the meaning of my life?

Guess what? It is 4:30am and I am still awake once again! The good news is hopefully it will be easier for me to adjust to the time change when I return to Tokyo this weekend!

The Greatest Love Of All

 The Greatest Love Of All
written by Michael Masser and Linda Creed

I believe that children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children’s laughter remind us how we used to be

Everybody searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone to fulfill my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me

I decided long ago
Never to walk in anyone’s shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I will live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can’t take away my dignity

Chorus:
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children’s laughter remind us how we used to be

And I decided long ago
Never to walk in anyone’s shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I will live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can’t take away my dignity

Chorus:
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

And if by chance, that special place
That you’ve been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love
