Insights from Chapter 1
#1
The Japanese cherry blossom is a symbol of springtime, and the Japanese eagerly follow the sakura forecast to know when the flowers will show their white petals.
#2
The Japanese celebrate the blossom forecast, known as the sakura zensen, with a festival that lasts for two weeks. The sakura petals begin to fall a week later, and the Japanese enjoy watching them fall.
#3
When we fall in love, we experience a kaika moment. It is a mysterious realm of love that can have the most unexpected effects. When we ask other people about the moment when a new world opens up for us, they tell us things such as the following: The first time I heard his voice, I felt breathless.
#4
When kaika is transformative, we want to turn it into mankai. In other words, we want to make sure that what has been born inside us matures and unfolds to its full potential. Mankai occurs when the person who falls in love decides to tend the garden of the relationship on both good and bad days to prevent it from withering.
#5
The Japanese have a formula that explains how to find your ikigai, or passion, and how to stay on that path until you obtain mankai, or success. It goes like this: ikigai + kaika + time = mankai.
#6
We all have the ability to make a new start in life, regardless of age. What matters isn’t how many more years we might live but what we will do with the time we have left. If you’re brave enough to do what you love, every day could be the best day of your life.
#7
The term late bloomer is often used to describe someone who discovers her talent, perhaps even her ikigai, at a later age. Defying the conventional wisdom that intellectual growth reaches its peak in young adults, late bloomers never cease to improve and renew.
#8
If we look at the people around us, or even at ourselves, we’ll see that it’s often difficult to stay in the present. Our thoughts wander in all directions, and it’s hard to keep them focused on where we are now, what we’re doing now, and whom we’re with right now.
