I was born in Akita, snowy northern Japan when just spring just starting.
My parents had worked very hard and my grandma had taken care of me very much.
Grandma and I used to enjoy Japanese traditional singing programs on TV frequently.
There are many gods and temples in my house.
My grand-ma came from temples village and she was a very spiritual person.
When I was a child,
I know I like to sing.
But I didn’t show.
When I became a little bigger.
I know I wanted to be a singer.
But I didn’t say.
When I could learn music in school,
I chose some instruments.
But I didn’t sing.
I could find a job concerned to music and husband of musician but it didn’t work well.
Fortunately I found the way to heal people and also myself.
I had to live my own aim by my self.
I had to grow up my child and my dream too.
After I graduate to grow up my child, I started to grow me up again.
To sing is too much something I can't discribe.
I had to give my self a lot of love and forgiveness and respect.
I needed to heal.
I needed to meditate.
I needed to concentlate.
I needed to relax.
