Compare them.

Some say you cannot compare an apple with an orange. But they are so similar, aren't they? Similarities bind, while differences discriminate.

berenice,

Thanks for your kind words. BTW, have you tried twitter.com? I put these images there, too. It's kind of fun!

Emy,

Thank you for your nice words. I will do my best to meet your expectations. Where in Brazil do you live?

I live in São Paulo. But you might know my mother, Marie Murakami.

By the way, I think is really nice of you to interact with us (followers) by internet. It shows that we are all equal, and "The Truth of life" is the only thing above us.

Emy,

Ah,ha... You are a daughter of Marie-san. Glad to see you online!

>>"The Truth of life" is the only thing above us.<<

Ooops! Is it "above us" or "within us"?

Hmmm...I dind´t realize that when I was writting...but now your words really make sense...thank you very much!

My mother showed us your book based on this blog! While she was translating some parts, my brothers and I agreed that you appeared to be too far from us(besides the physical distance), but now I can say that "simplicity" is your key word! and it makes me admire you as a person more each day! I´ll defenitely visit this blog more often!

Emy,

I don't have a book that is based on this English blog. I think you are talking about my books "Shokan Zakkan" that are based on my Japanese blog, aren't you?
