Celebration Day — twenty-five

Crying is truth
Unexplainable 
True

Just entered a room where Japanese are speaking
Something draws me to all things Japan
For years
I listen — tones, laughs, an energy I do not understand
—- listening

Just being there touched me

Cultures are a wonder, even before being understood
Attentive understanding
or attentive without understanding
A wonder

Being is true
Attentive being 

If you ask where tears come from
and what for
I can not explain
But they are true
