Fall has come.
The length of the day is becoming shorter and shorter.
It's cold a little these days and the leaves of the tree are becoming yellow or red.
I feel the coming of fall from them too.
I saw an interesting scene.
These snail are copulating.
I had never seen a scene like this till yesterday morning.
It is said that the sex of snail is male as well as female and they have to copulate to lay their eggs.

About five months have passed since I registered in Kiva.
And four months have passed since I lent $ 25 to Miss grace who is running a grocery store in Ghana.
She is planning to repay the money in seven months.
Today I received an e-mail from Kiva staff that said ' $ 3.62 had been newly repaid.'
Total repaid so far is $ 14.46 (57.84% of my loan).
This is my page.
Her business seems to be working well !
This is the sixth time I see the words of a bulletin board at a zen temple near my house.The meaning of these words is as follows.
If we don't worry about the problems too much, we aren't greedy and we have some reliable company or friends, we will be able to have a happy lives.
In short, our mind depends on our ways of thinking.

Evening sky on October 6
Visiting to this blog, I knew this campaign.
I had an interest to it, so I registered on this site today.
We have an serious environmental problem nowadays and many kinds of creatures are disappearing day by day.
It is said that it has something to do with the global warming.
I will join the research of some kinds of plants and creatures through this campaign.
Now everyone on the earth should do something to stop it.
It is rainy today.We had a lecture meeting at our zen-temple.
The meeting began at one o'clock in the afternoon.
First we recited a sutra called 'Ha-n-nya shi-n-gyo' with eight priests from some temples.
After that a lecturer from a temple in Hokkaido made a speech for about an hour and a half.
He told us that each life is so valuable that we should not treat it lightly and that what is really important is the thing we can't see.
Last he told us a message from the Soto sect superintendent priest named Ta-i-ho Fu-ku-ya-ma.
The slogan of this year is 'The words of love'.
He says we should value the words to make a good personality and a good society.

It's the season of Cosmos.
I see flowers of Cosmos swinging in the cool wind here and there.
We call this flower 'Aki sakura' ; (Autumn Cherry blossoms) in Japan.
This flower is one of the signs of autumn.
