What a joy to read this.. Loved the attention to the small details.. These lines in particular really cheered me up: "Five people gave me a royal tour of the campus, although each of them only spoke a few words of English each. It was the cutest thing ever. We mostly laughed and hugged, because all of us knew that we were just listening to the space beneath the words." Thank you for sharing the gifts and blessings that you received in Japan with all of us thru the space beneath these words..
