Read about the Tea House, lost in some random forest of Japan.
Surrounded by only the sounds of the nature and the minimalistic style of the place, the true objective is to realize that only things that matter are the ones that are within us, and we need nothing but ourselves to be happy.

Tea House

When I grow up, I will have a tea house, lost in some random forest in the country of the rising sun. A place that doesn't know the trouble that life brings us as part of the daily menu we have at our table.

I'll leave my problems at home and will throw the achings through the window.

To set myself at the table and split the sticks to begin eating, and in the afternoon a cup of hot tea to relieve the cold.

To walk with bare foot and feel the soft touch of the tatami mat, that goes mixing up with the sensation of silence step by step.

And at night, to watch the sky and listen to the whispers of the waves on the water and the wind on the treetop.

To sleep on the floor to get the character straight and wake up as someone new, willing to change all that makes us bitter.

When I grow up.. I'll have a tea house, where I'll escape far away from my problems and I'll dedicate only to live, to remind myself that I only need me.. to be happy.

だからこそさよならなんだ..
