March is coming just in two days later. It's a spring. The spring in Japan is both good and not good to us.
What is good is that we can enjoy cherry blossoms and pleasant and warm breeze. In spring, Japan turns elegantly pink. Japanese spring is beautiful. And what is not good is that we can suffer pollinosis. Once we suffer it, our eyes and noses come to itch very much. It's terrible.
A few years ago, a boy from London asked me why many women walking along the street were wearing masks. I replied, "it is because of pollen". Pollen causes pollinosis. So we Japanese dislike pollen. However, in a sense, it is a symbol of spring season. And it means the dawn of life. Spring is the dawn.
