Thank you for the wonderful memory!

It passed more than 2 weeks since my sister and my daughter left to Japan.
It was a challenge to take care of my sister for 10 days. We didn't grow together, she is 9 years older than me. I could listen her life story. And I am happy to know she is happy now.

Usually mothers take care of their babies with a servant of  servant position, starting changing their diapers, giving milk even at mid night or early morning, hearing  their crying.
 But it was a joy for moms. Because they have a full of love for their babies.

I wish I could do this for everyone.

My sister left here with full of appreciation for our hospitality, especially for my husband.

I appreciate for him a lot.

Also  my daughter helped me a lot as a interpreter.

We made a wonderful memory together.

Mark 10:45
For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many."

I miss Millie.



 I have moved to Chester NY from Kingston NY in April 2014. And the Kingston house was sold in 7 months , on November 7th between 10am to 11am. It means we got the money that time.
It is exactly same day and same time when my dog called Millie dead. Millie dead on Nov 7th 2013 11 am.

Millie took care of Presky family even after she died. She loved the Kingston house.

 I believe strongly that if we love pet as a family member, God  or our ancestor protect the family through their pet.
Because God is love and our parent. Jesus said  the hairs of your head are all numbered。
 
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー
28 And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.[a] 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?[b] And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. 30 But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows. -Matthew 10/28 (Bible Verse)

My Wonder Plant

It is three years since we moved here. In the first year, I planted some wild flower seeds in my garden. Since then I've been enjoying to see the pink cosmos flowers every year.

However at the same time, I've been watching some cosmos flowers blooming wine red color in my neighbor garden. Whenever I was walking. " I wish I had the color one in my garden." I always thought watching then.

 It is amazing! I saw the red wine colored cosmos in my garden next pink one few days ago.

If some birds sent the seeds, why they did next pink one. They could do any place in my garden.


I wonder it.

And I can say " no one can deny the power of beyond human."

Someone say it is God.

Education does not take place only through a teacher standing at a podium with books, but also through the teacher's words and deeds. The way a person dresses is an education; you can tell a good deal about a person's character by the way he or she dresses. Just as the body reflects the mind, a person's clothes reflect his or her character. In this light, our daily life offers constant opportunities to educate, stimulate and influence everyone around us. If we continually strengthen our effectiveness in educating people in our daily life, society surely will develop. That is where new hope for our world unfolds. ---Rev. Moon

Happy anniversary !!!

It is tomorrow July 1st. It is our 35 years anniversary. Wow!
Since we are getting older and more mature,  I think we are getting more appreciate each other.
I guess so.

I used  to receive appreciating words from family. But now I am happy to make someone happy even without the word "Thank you". Of cause I would like to hear that, but I do not care so much.

Since we have been lubing each other, it seems like our personality is getting round.

Anyway Happy Anniversary!!!

  We live for those we love. We would not exchange them for the whole world.
Love is absolute, unique, eternal and unchanging. The place where that love can settle is within each of us. There is no higher hope than finding and uniting with our own counterpart of love in that place of settlement. That is where God is; that is where the root of universe germinates. That is where the root of love is created.

What is the motivation for man and woman to relate? Even for those who do not know God, the motivation is love. We cannot deny this, even physiologically. No one can deny the fact that all created beings move in pairs, as subject and object partners, male and female. Why was this pair system created? Love made it that way. ~Rev Moon

My sister is coming!

My sister is coming next month from Japan.
This is something very significant for me.

I came to USA to attend the International Blessing Wedding Ceremony that was held on July 1st, 1982. Since then my husband and I have been together. Hallelujah!!

However my parents never visited here to meet my family.

I really feel that my sister is the representative of my parents and relative.

I have learned in the church that International marriage is the base of the ideal world, and it helps to overcome every wall of nation, race, and religions.
Since Home is the little piece of the world.

Of course there are a lot of challenge.
but my husband and I have been peace after all. Hallelujah!! 

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー
What is the principle of the Unification Church? It is that the individual has to sacrifice for the family, live for the sake of others, and lead a life of love.
The purpose of the family is to serve  the tribe and live for that which is greater.
the place where we live like that is the Kingdom of heaven on earth.--Rev Moon

I watched a documentary, that is.....

I watched a documentary TV program. A Japanese person visited a Japanese 75 years old man living in China. He cannot speak Japanese. and does not know his birthday and his birth parents.

After WW2,  still a lot of Japanese were in China and Soviet soldiers came down  there. They did crazy violence, rape, robbery for Japanese. Some group of Japanese in villages did collateral mass suicide. A lot of miserable stories were there which is not spoke out. Because it was too painful to make public.

A little boy(around 3 yeas old)was crying in a lot of Japanese dead bodies. A Chinese couple adopted him and sent him to school by selling their own house. He studied so hard and became a principal in a school. He took care his step parents until they passed away. He has a wonderful Chinese wife and children. He said he wants  to see his relative in Japan, but it is  not easy.

I hope that TV show help to find his relative in Japan.

Common Merganser (Mergus merganser) mother carrying chicks on water, Upper Bavaria, Germany
As a child, I would often observe bird nests. Once I climbed a tree to look inside a nest and the mother bird stated pecking at me. I brushed her aside. She flew away but returned repeatedly, desperate and willing to die to protect her nest. Observing this behavior, we cannot deny the powerful instinct of animals to risk their own lives to protect their young. The same can be said of people. You should be able to invest your life for the sake of love.This is the way of true person. Which people are truly good? They are those who establish love as their root and try to protect their loved ones even at the cost of their own lives. ~ Rev Moon~

Feeling love with wind

 I would  like  to share my unforgettable experience. It happened after the prayer meeting.
It was a windy and hot day in the middle of April.
I thought I had a good and deep prayer. I felt like cleansing my heart with tear and gratitude.

After the meeting, I was walking down the hill. Since it was so windy. I said to my friend "It is better to say  [a sweet sakura dancing day]  than a terrible windy day. It is so romantic isn't it!
It is the same like a happy spring rain rather than rainy day."

And then I saw the shower of cherry blossoms which  was  totally like a tornado, it was a strong in a whirl,  was awesome. I have never seen it before.

 I guess I made God happy to enjoy His creation. And God wanted to show more incredible seen to me. I really felt so.

 I realize if we are peaceful and grateful enough, we can hear God words through nature and people around us all the time.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We say in the orient that family harmony makes all go well, the Bible says,"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the  children God."(Matt5/9)
It means that those who bring peace will be son and daughters of God. If there were a messenger of peace in this world who was eliminating the causes of conflict, providing a base for unification, and leading a movement toward the one Lord, God would be compelled to pay attention to that person.

There is an old saying,"Family harmony makes all go well," but do you think family harmony is possible without harmony within the individual? If our own integrity is on the verge of collapse, can we foster harmony in our family? If individuals had carried conflict within themselves from the very outset, those who would deny God existence be right. But our inner conflict came about because something went wrong.Ideologies such as materialism developed, with the wrong diagnosis of reality.

 The problem lies within the self, not within society. If there is a problem in my family, it is not because my elder brother is bad, my elder sister is bad, or my father is bad; it is because I am bad. I must first attain a certain standard before I can be in a position to criticize the standard of others.
Only after attaining unity between my own original mind and my body can I proudly enter the one unified world. If my original mind and body are divided, how can I participaate in the world where everything is harmonized?
therefore, I should not allow my body to become my master. I can be happy only when I control my body and direct it to serve my mind; then God will come and dwell within me. It is said that "Family harmony makes all go wall." If I want peace in my family and within myself, I need to unite my mind and body. ---Rev Moon
