いらつしゃいませ!!

In Japan, when you enter a store or a restaurant or a home, the hosts will call out "いらつしゃいませ!"(Ira'shaimase), which means something like "Welcome!" "Come on in!" Which is what I say to you, new and old friends, as I share random thoughts and creations to whomever is interested.

In remembrance of the Thai SEAL diver

I was riveted to the news this week following 
the discovery and rescue of the soccer team and their coach,
 trapped deep in a cave filled with water.
There were several reasons it was so compelling:
-These amazing divers willing to risk their lives to save the boys.
-The international cooperation of many countries
-The humbleness of the Thai people to accept and praise the help of others
-The bravery and courage of the boys themselves
-It was such courageous, righteous behavior in the middle of a bad behavior week.

There is an Irish legend of selkies, seal people, 
who come on land and become real people,
but can return to the sea and live as seals as well.
 Let us hope that Saman Kunan is now a real seal,
diving and swimming freely..
