【The Summer Fragrance That Comes to Mind During Obon】

On summer evenings, the sound of taiko drums from Bon Odori dances drifts from somewhere in the distance. The scent of incense carries on the wind, suddenly awakening nostalgic memories. The steam from somen noodles that grandmother cooked for us, the warm light of welcoming fires burning at the entrance, the lively dinner table where the whole family gathered...

Obon is not just an annual event. It is a special time that connects families across time.

> "I really need to go back home this year..."

> "I want to show my face to our ancestors and that special person"

While thinking this way, work, distance, time, and various circumstances cross your mind.

> "But maybe it's impossible again this year..."

Are you feeling guilt and frustration between your feelings for loved ones and the barriers of reality?

The true meaning of Obon is not just physical homecoming. What matters is "spiritual homecoming"—reflecting on your roots and conveying "thank you" even from afar.

If there were a way to give form to those feelings...
