From the translator’s journal ~Time is an eternity~

See with both eyes
hold with both hands
stand on both feet.

See with one eye
hold with one hand
stand on one foot.

What a difference!

Have I put my heart
in doing something?

So I ask
only after
I broke my left ankle.

I will put my heart
in everything I do
from now on.

If I put my heart in everything
there will be no leisure time.

But it’s different from busyness,
it’s a time filled with gratitude.

When I put my heart in everything
with love and gratitude
time becomes an eternity.

Time is an eternity…
