Kim Myo Seon was a traditional Korean dancer and singer. She came to Japan when she was 38 years old and fell in love with the head of temple 13. Every night, he would say “thank you for today.” Every morning he would say “let’s have a great day.” They had a son. The husband passed at the age of 95. She is now 50s and the head of the temple. The last thing she said today was “life is hard but love is easy.”
(at 第13番札所 大日寺)
