Family love grows with the Hina dolls
Cultivating family love through Hinamatsuri
What is the real reason why families should communicate with Hina dolls?
This is important for the times to come!
Winter is a time of very cold days, but how are you and your family doing?
Your daughter and granddaughter will spend their first cold season together and then enjoy the warm weather of spring with their Hina dolls.
The spirit of Japan lies in appreciating the changing seasons.
I hope that this is a Japanese atmosphere that we would like to leave to future generations.
Nowadays, we Japanese have become very wealthy and convenient.
Wherever you go, whenever you go, you can get things.
On the other hand, it is unfortunate that we are now living in an age where we must communicate the value (essence) of things.
Television, games, the internet, cell phones...
Indeed, our lives have changed dramatically in just a few short years.
Here's what I think.
Abundance
Japanese people are satisfied with this material wealth and convenience.
"Maybe deep down inside you feel lonely?"
As much as it is rich and convenient,
"Aren't the most vulnerable members of the family being sacrificed?"
"Hikikomori" and "depression."
It's not something that anyone created.
It's not that anyone is at fault.
In fact, this is a distortion that has arisen among modern people due to the abundance of material things.
Things and information are so proliferating.
The essence of things is not being conveyed.
What is Hinamatsuri?
So, what is Hinamatsuri?
When asked, "What are Hina dolls?", I answer like this.
Every year, the Hinamatsuri is a heart-learning event where the family, centered around Oyose, deepens the bonds and love within the family and makes Oyose feel loved in her heart.
It is precisely because of times like these that we are now living in an age where we must provide our children with the nourishing supplement of education that enriches their hearts.
Although he is currently the weakest member of the family, I feel it from his perspective.
I notice.
They will then grow and create the Japan of the next era.
This cycle of people like this has not changed at all from the past to the present.
Last but not least, Mom and Dad!
What I want Oyose to teach us through the experience of Hinamatsuri is the richness of the heart .
