keiro no hi

Today is a national holiday, Keiro no hi (Respect for the Aged Day).

It is a day to thank the elderly for their contributions to society over the years and to celebrate their longevity.

I think in America they have a day around this time of year called Grandparents Day.

While I don't have grandparents anymore, I still appreciate all that they have done for me.

Love and miss you guys!

  4. What a nice post Kat. My grandfather in Japan recently passed earlier this month after a very long, full life, so it was nice to also remember him on this day!
