For life is not just about how we will live comfortably, or just about the good and the pleasurable things life may bring us, as we all hope it to be. But it's how we deal with rough roads, molehills and even the mountains each of us will have to trudge as we go through life; with a lot shimmying when edges are sharp, while others can go cherry-picking. But what is important is to be armed with great deal of faith and courage to face life's trial head on...

Who will go first?
I just don't want to confused you of how Japanese take a bath. We do take a bath everyday, or we take shower, because we are a shower people. But here in Japan, I was bit surprised when I heard who would take the first bath, then who'll go second? But why make a fuss? And I believe it doesn't take so much time taking a bath. When I took my very first bath I was so confused and so I was in and out within a few minutes. I thought I'd start to boil with a very hot water in the tub with floating yellow mermaid toy temperature. Wow, I couldn't stand the hot dip at first. But now I imagine myself when I go back home. I will surely miss all the stuff in Japanese bathrooms like, basin, stool, thermometer and all different colors of powder I mix with the water. One that soothes muscle pain, one with relaxing aroma and other that enhances the skin, but what I like most is the milk powder that'll give you a white milky bath. In cold winter like this, they soothe themselves dipping in hot tub to warm themselves, everynight. They don't take a bath in the morning afraid of catching colds, so I just follow what they do here. Having a night hot dip in the tub. And now I just have to prepare the hot tub with yellowy lemon aroma. Wow...what a nice dip before sacking out in this cold cold night.
