A strong, slow-moving Typhoon No. 10 (SHANSHAN) struck Kagoshima Prefecture, Kyushu this morning.
This typhoon missed the westerly winds, making it difficult to predict its path.
Strong winds are expected to start blowing in the area from tomorrow.
I hope that no major disasters will occur.

”Ryoukan's one-liner precept"
Too many wodrs
Too quick to speak ?
Speak noisily
Say something that hasn't been asked
butt in on one's conversation
Talk back
Speak before the other person has finished saying what they want to say.
By the way, I was given a pamphlet like this some time ago.
I reflect on myself and feel ashamed.

According to the Japanese calendar, autumn starts five days later.
A long time ago, when we heard the arrival of autumn, we would say, "It's gotten so much cooler in the morning and evening."
In reality, the heatwave continues, and I can't go outside even in the evening, let alone during the day.
So I have stopped walking.
I'm worried my body will become weak.
This morning, I woke up earlier than usual, so I decided to go for a walk for the first time in a while.
I was drenched in sweat when I got home.
But it was much more comfortable than an evening walk.

The heatwave continues with temperatures at around 35 degrees Celsius.
It's too hot to go outside.
Please take care of yourself, everyone.
The expiration date of the emergency food I bought last time is approaching, so I bought some online.
Recently, abnormal weather has been getting more and more severe, and we don't know when or where a disaster will occur.
I wish the day will never come when we have to eat these food.
Three days' worth of food and water cost about 25,000 yen.
It's been about 10 days since my husband got COVID-19.
He has almost recovered and is doing well.
It seems that his symptoms were mild.
I had heard that the virus was highly contagious, so I was very worried.
But I'm relieved that I'm safe and sound.
However, I think I must have inhaled the virus.
I wonder if it was an asymptomatic infection?
It seems that a new coronavirus mutant strain, "KP3" has been spreading recently.
It's the 11th wave.
It's finally arrived in our home.
Last Saturday, my husband developed a fever, and complained of joint pain and a severe sore throat.
I took a test with a test kit on Monday, and it showed two clear lines.
The symptoms subsided after about three days.
Afraid of infection within the household, I started wearing masks, we slept and ate in separate rooms, and my husband was the last to bathe.
I'm counting down to six days since the onset of symptoms.
So far, I'm safe.
By the way, my husband has received the vaccine seven times, and I have never.
So it's even more frightening.

The other day, my grandson tried goldfish scooping at a festival.
He brought two tiny goldfish, but one fell out of the container and only one survived.
He said he wouldn't keep one at his house, so we decided to keep one at ours.
Now I am researching how to care for it.
The rainy season is almost over and the days are hot, but seeing the goldfish swimming in the bowl helps me forget the heat for a little while.

This flower, which blooms quietly in a corner of the backyard in early summer, was planted by my late mother-in-law some time ago.
It doesn't grow very quickly but it was sometimes cut down by an amateur gardener.
I accidentally cut it with pruning shears the other day.
I was disappointed very much, so I cut it in two places and put them in a glass.
And to my delight, it grew roots, leaves, and even flowers bloomed.
It's a tough flower.
I'm going to plant it in a pot after a little whilel.

”Everything is divine will."
According to Wikipedia
"Divine will" is used in two main ways.
One is "mission given by heaven," which means "the command of heaven or the heavenly emperor."
The other is "fate" or "destiny" that is beyond the power of humans, meaning a destiny or lifespan given by heaven.

My sister-in-law presented this flower.
I wonder what they're called ?
I can't find the name even after searching with Google Lens.

Something like a bud has started to grow.
I serched the name of this flower with Google Lens again.
But I couldn't find its name.

I finally found out its name today.
It's a coral plant, also known as a flamingo plant.
But it's a bit pathetic.

”You shouldn't suffer from delusionals.
Listen, arrange, communicate.”
In Zen, "baku mouso" is pronounced as ``maku mozo".
It means ``Don't be delusional'' or ``Don't think about unnecessary things.''
"Delusion'' refers to fantasizing, erroneous opinions, and thinking that something that is not true is true.
"Maku mozo"means "Don't get caught up in thoughts, feelings, or delusions of the heart.''
It means that in order to attain enlightenment, one must abandon the mind of thinking and discriminating.
I am far from enlightened and am being swayed by "delusions" every day.
