matsuri walking

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kokubunji, 2023.08.05

That's twice I've been on the local news. I've yet to break into international.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.
