Today is my lucky day!
Something completely random just happened to me this morning.
As I was going to work and just about to enter Minami-Shinjuku station, a middle-aged Japanese guy came up to me and asked for directions to the nearest coffee shop. It is a miserably rainy day.
Minami-Shinjuku is my neighborhood, so of course I know where to direct him to. I told him where to go and he said thank you.
I continued fussing about my backpack, trying to find my wallet, when I saw him coming towards me again.
He came and gave me a present. A beautiful hand-made bookmark with dried leaves on it. He then bowed to me slightly and said "sayonara!".
I was stunned... what do you make of that?
Thank you for the beautiful present, Dear Man, you have just lit up 1000 candles and brightened this otherwise super gray day.
Today.... is my lucky day, I'm sure!
