❄️ Lessons from the Road — In Sapporo’s Winter

When traveling, you realize the road is not just a path to your destination.
Every footprint tells a different story, and every pause holds a hidden lesson.

A tree standing alone in a snow-covered field. Quietly and steadfastly holding its place, much like the start of a day.

The first lesson is pace.
Some walk fast, others slow.
But more important than speed is direction.

The second lesson is patience.

In waiting, your mind calms, and the scenery before you becomes clearer.

The third lesson is change.
The same road looks different in the morning and evening, on snowy days and sunny ones.
Change is what makes each day special.

may warm winds and good company always walk beside you on your road.
