I took a walk in the forest with my daughter on a pleasant holiday with a clear sky.
The place is near to the nursery school and my daughter walks freely ahead of me, assuming that she’s been here and walked around many times with her teacher and friends.
And when we arrived at a large tree on the hill, she spun around and lay on her back with her hands open.
I could imagine that she, her friends and teacher were doing like that all the time.
Since the series of movement was adventurous and brilliant, it made me startled for a moment.
Another reason I was startled was that it overlapped with what was written in “Ukeireru” (published by Shogakukan) by Shozo Kajima, who was mentioned in the previous diary.
“A man accepted light, air and the earth once one was born”
The “beginning of oneself” is connected with nature and it becomes the power of life.
The book writes that one way to bring those back is to lay spread-eagled with arms and legs wide open.
It may not be special for my daughter who will be four years from the “beginning”.
“Hey, where are you?”
With being hard to recall my “beginning”, it was a dazzling scene that I deeply hoped that she could cherish it for a long time.
