The Little Joys in Life – Each One a Glimpse into Unconditional Love

 

This year, I thought to myself, “I want to see the cherry blossoms with my mom.”

And then, almost as a surprise, my husband gifted me a trip home—with airfare and accommodation—for a solo visit to Japan.

When I arrived in Japan and went to see my mother, she told me that she no longer has time for a leisurely walk because she’s currently caring for her husband (my stepfather). Even if she did have the time, it would be hard for her to adjust her schedule to mine. That’s when I realized that the dream of “seeing the cherry blossoms together” wasn’t going to happen.

Every time I visited, my in-laws kindly arranged time for us to go to restaurants or cafés with my mother and sister-in-law, but we never managed to squeeze in a walk.
And before I knew it, all the cherry blossoms around my mom’s neighborhood had already fallen.

Abraham Hicks reminds us that action could be limited in the manifestation process.

If something can be accomplished through effort, then by all means, go for it.

But things like the weather or someone else’s situation—those are beyond our control.

Today, my mom said, “Let’s have another girls’ day,” so I went over.
On a whim, we parked in front of a random restaurant—and right across the street, we noticed a wide walking path. It was hard to see from where we were, since it was lower than the road, but we caught a glimpse of fluffy pink clouds stretching out in a row.

To our amazement, the cherry blossoms were in full bloom! 🌸🌸🌸

The three of us were stunned—“Why are they still blooming?!”
It was a place none of us had ever heard of, a quiet little spot probably only known to people in the neighborhood.

Just a few days ago, I’d been walking beneath rows of cherry trees that had already begun to shed their petals.
So to see them in such full bloom felt nothing short of a miracle.

Even better, we actually had time for a walk together.

And so, my wish—to take a joyful stroll under the cherry blossoms with my mom and family—came true after all.

We laughed a lot, felt so much gratitude, and created another beautiful memory together.

Even when you think, “It didn’t work out,” life can surprise you with something wonderful.
Sometimes things fall into place effortlessly—just by catching the right timing or a happy coincidence.
And that’s why life is so precious.

Thank you, Universe, for your divine orchestration.

During this stay, I’ve received so many signs that “All is well.”
Reality gently shifted in the kindest ways, and I could feel that joy was already prepared and waiting for me.
Whether I’m in Japan or the U.S., I find myself even more thankful for this world created by our emotions and vibrations.
Moments that make me want to give thanks keep showing up again and again. This feeling has been steady for the past few years.

When I consciously notice the moments in daily life that feel pleasant to me, things that were once invisible become visible—and I can clearly see the gifts that were already given to me.
