If





If we all understood that
everyone has their own battles to fight,
insecurities to face, loves to contend,
and goals to attain,
the world would be a gentler place.

Ladybug





Enjoy the little things,
for one day you may look back and realize
they were the big things.

Shy





Don't try to be what you're not.
If you're nervous, be nervous.
If you're shy, be shy. It's cute.

Green





Green is the prime color of the world,
and that from which its loveliness arises.

Observation





To me, photography is an art of observation.
It's about finding something interesting in an ordinary place...
I've found it has little to do with the things you see
and everything to do with the way you see them.

Apple Blossom





If an apple blossom or a ripe apple could tell its own story,
it would be, still more than its own,
the story of the sunshine that smiled upon it,
of the winds that whispered to it,
of the birds that sang around it,
of the storms that visited,
and of the motherly tree that held it and fed it
until its petals were unfolded and its form developed.

Sakura Epilogue





If only we might fall 
Like cherry blossoms in the spring,
So pure and radiant!
