4/9/9 "Tokyo" by The Books in NYC: "The realization is better than the anticipation"

GAMBATTE!

      Japan is a unity of islands.

      Nippon, as the people who live there say it.

      The unity of islands floats with the loving ball of life at the edge of the ocean, together in space, spinning and winning the place to be genki.

      Genki is my favorite Japanese word.

      Genki means lively, enthusiastic, and energetic.

      Enthusiasm means “one with God”.

      (61 words)

      Enthusiasm began in the ocean, and swam in the light somewhere along the way until it saw the true light of day and light star bright with all of night.

      Life has been flowing through growing ever since.

      Energy spreads itself from one form of life to another, evolving enthusiasm intelligently wherever it may be amongst infinity.

      On our love ball place to be spiraling through time controlled by another mind^, life began raising value of quality and imagining creation of possibility to the point where you are you and I am me.  We are awareness realizing the limitless mystery of its own infinity, which flows through everything.  Even when it appears to be mostly empty, the universe is still conspiring to make itself genki.

      I don’t know any of this for sure, since the whole world appears wonderfully and weirdly webbed within one wise wizard’s infinite eyes, but they say (214) love began when all of the land was connected as one island.  Or was it one I-land… or eye-land…

      When it existed there was no one to record it, so it took thousands of years for love to name the island “Pangaea”.

      The one island felt lonely though, so it split one into many unique islands so it could experience the mystery of the unknown in one, and adventure into this unknown in search of the treasure of one, and reunite with one, and fully appreciate one by looking at one from a new perspective that couldn’t exist if there was no such thing as two and all the other beautiful (326) numbers.

      Light makes life, stars are born.

       (334)

      Stars travel through unknown empty to become love music of the spheres.  Water becomes.  Energy light becomes lightning enthusiasm and creates life in the unclear waters of the ocean (365).

      Fish-life swims until it decides to find something new, which life will always do.  Some fish-life continues to enjoy swimming for life, because life always loves that.  Some phish-life becomes monkey-life and human-life, and here we are, driving our cars and aware of the stars, dreaming of Mars, mixing magic with piano bars
