Intermittent Posting – Japan 2026 (pt3)

I am grateful.

The first few days were a roller coaster (literally, with the food poisoning), and then with events at work threatening to unseat what little remained of my sanity.

However, I just decided to let go. The consequences will remain to be dealt with when I return. I need to be ok with that.

In this town, it’s easy to forget. The mountains fill your view and take your breath away every few steps. There are problems waiting but the mountain range keeps them at bay for awhile.
