Serenity in Autumn

Deep Autumn

時間の流れ Time is like a flowing river

流れるままに気の行くままに よどみなく　流れて行きたい 一日、一日を。。。。。だが なにかが見えたり、つかえたり 時には止まったり、かみあってみたり　 又　流れてみたり。。。 大きな幸せも大切だが　 小さく　 ささやかな幸せが毎日つづく 幸せの日が最も大切。 -倶知安写真家西野武雄- Time is like a flowing river, It just keeps on flowing and flowing, And flows at his own sweet will. Every moment is added into the ​freshwater flow, That has passed will never pass again. Cherish every precious moment around you, Appreciate people who are always there for you, That’s how we live a happy life.
