Messages from Big Island, Hawaii, in Japanese and English
We saw owls flying again last evening!
I was a little stressed out yesterday, but I first time an owl flying clearly in front of me, and that brightened my mind! Seeing owls is said to be a good sign in Hawaii. I felt a hope. Also, this morning, I saw multiple cross-shaped clouds in the beautiful sky! I was watching the video that President Trump was doing a little dancing at the rally. I remembered the times when I luckily had first-hand experiences to see him from close distance and listened to his speech. Thanks to my work of an official interpret for JCU Chairman, I was sitting with Chairman Jay to translate for him in the ACU chairman box seat at CPAC event a couple of times. President Trump was just there in front of me. When he was walking to the stage and appeared in front of big audience ,who welcomed him with enthusiasm, big applaud and standing ovation, I was deeply moved and overwhelmed. I was feeling the oneness with many other American people in the hall. President Trump had such a sense of presence. He had an amazing aura. I was thinking, “he is a king.” I believe he might have been a king of some strong nations in his past life. He could be a big figure in the history. At one event of CPAC, he had just come back from a foreign country and made it the event. He was working non-stop at that time as well (still now). He should have been so exhausted. However, once he was welcomed by passionate big audience with cheers, applaud, and repeated standing ovation, he was getting more energized. It seemed like he was receiving lots of energy from people who love him, respect him, and support him. He talked lots of real stories he has seen and heard from American citizens. I was moved to tears. He made us laugh a lot with lots of jokes. He was very clear what he wants to get things done. And he has been trying very hard to get lots of things done, despite lots of obstacles and constant attacks. I am so fortunate and thrilled to be a Japanese American, witnessing this historical event, happening in this great nation, the United States of America! Comments are closed.
