As the season changes and the plum blossoms begin to bloom, we are reminded not only of their beauty but also of the deep symbolism they carry. The delicate pink flowers, which grace our gardens and parks, represent loyalty and purity. In many cultures, these blossoms herald the arrival of spring and the promise of new beginnings. As genealogists, we often delve into the stories of our ancestors, uncovering the roots of our family trees. The plum blossom, with its rich history, serves as a metaphor for our own journeys. Just as these flowers bloom after the harsh winter, our family histories reveal resilience and strength in the face of adversity. This season, let us celebrate the plum blossom not only for its aesthetic allure but also as a reminder of the enduring connections we share with our heritage. Each flower is a testament to the stories that shape us, encouraging us to honor and cherish our lineage. Let these beautiful blossoms inspire us to explore our roots and appreciate the beauty of our family histories.

We assisted a TV program to find a missing father lives in Japan as a Genealogist.
They, a father and a daughter, finally could meet each other for the first time in around 40 years and they had spent two days talking about their life, feelings to the present.
The father told me after spending two days with his daughter as follows.
The way of my daugther's speaking and her voice reminded me of her mother...
The days made me feel like I was in the dream or saw something that is not there, her mother.

He might has felt he was spending two days with his wife.
He might has recalled the days spending with his late loved wife.

The two days were extremely emotional days for us.

先週のブラタモリは
”村上海賊はなぜ生まれた”
でした。

ちょうど昨年、海外の方から
先祖が村上海賊だった・・・と言われる方から依頼があり
お墓探し（見つかりました！）や
村上海賊について調べたばかりでした。

ブラタモリも興味深く観ました。

世の中、知らないことがたくさん。
