Hafa Adai,
So it seems that things have shifted just a bit for the walk. Orignally the walk was to start with three but Enson Inoue, Patrick, Ayuyu, and myself. But since Pat is came across more important priorities (Pat just moved back to Japan after a 2 and a half year break from the fight life, pursuing his roots and culture in Guam) and has decided to join in for a few days segment of the walk.(still a task in itself)
Destiny has it that the walk will start and hopefully end with at least two. Truthfully, I’m abit hesitant for the full duration of the walk mostly due to recent world news about the radiation in Japan.
Beginning to write this entry In the middle of A long drive from Saitama to Osaka at about 85miles per hour..were about 4hours in and not even nearly there…We’re riding in Enson’s hummer with aircon, wi-fi, and music, and in some ways—growing slightly impatient. Weak! If anything,this is just offering a concrete reminder of just how long and difficult this trip is gonna be.
As history tells and the future will surely echo however—virtually ANYTHING is possible through Spiritdn the power of positive thinking a. Absolutely easier said than done but human achievement and perseverance have done much more difficult things. More than a handful of people have spent 4years walking around the world. People without legs have climbed mountains, Deaf people have created music, and blind people have painted magnificent pictures.
As impossible as the walk might seem..at least there is a light at the end of our tunnel. But honestly, this hardly makes things seem easier. Still having confidence in this forbidden fruit and hoping be of service to Enson, the People of Japan, and always and imminent—the people of Guam.
We’re less than 2days away from beginning this walk..Ive been working with FokaiIndustries now for 15years and counting and Enson has been doing the same with the YamatoDamashii brand just a little bit longer. For us, i think Enson would agree that it Fokai and Yamato Damashii are much more to us than work&play…altogether–they are a Way of Life. they are a pursuit. they are to be of community service.
Both preach the path of perseverance and fortitude. We’re close to the helm of finding out (in my case possibly more than ever) what that really is about.
Talk is cheap abut experience is valuable.
to the best of my ability, I will be drafting Enson and following in his footsteps. Again easiersaidthandone.
