The fragrance of spring
Theme:RINA







The people of Naka-Meguro Station are too great!
They always are.







If you ride the trains around dusk,
It's too awesomeー.
Speaking of which,
Today is a Sunday, isn't it.
There are lots of people doing hanami parties with their families, friends, etc.,
And if you breathe in the fun-seeming air
You get a warm, fuzzy feeling.

The Meguro River sakura are special.







The day we returned from our America tour in our indies days,
The members took a commemorative photo here.
The spring in which you finally realize the beauty of the sakura you should see every year had arrived.







I wonder why Japanese people
Like sakura.






Because the color, shape, fragrance, season,
Are all gentle.







There's one more.
Ume, sunflowers, hibiscuses,
They face and bloom towards the sun.
But, every year, sakura face downwards.
Even though they reach a high place after great pains
They face downwards.
So that they perfectly meet the eyes of people who gather for hanami
When they look up at the sky.

















Occasionally,
Stopping and looking downwards is okay.







Somehow,
It's a flower that's like Japanese people.
Because we resemble each other,
I wonder if we'll always be able to cherish them.
Always doing everything at your own pace is all right.

The Japanese love sakura because it reminds them of how fleeting life is.
They have suffered earthquakes and typhoons for thousands of years, the sakura
is beautiful but it only has a life of a few weeks.
I once made a list of AKB songs that mention sakura but gave up when I got to 50,
Scandal are much the same.

What Tony said. Also, I recall a certain cultural affinity the Japanese have with the mayfly (蜉蝣 - Kagerou) precisely for the same reason (short, fleeting lifespan of a few weeks).

And lo, SCANDAL also have a song entitled that. So did One OK Rock if I recall correctly.

A good way to remind one not to take things for granted.
