My mom, Ruby Kiyohara, kept a file of my Dharma School projects … and yesterday granddaughter Melody made her first Dharma School project, an origami Daruma.
Some day, years from now, Melody will find this stuff in a box on a dusty shelf somewhere, and wonder just what the heck Grandpa was thinking.
And then she’ll smile, knowing that Grandpa loved her, and wanted to keep the precious memories of her childhood alive forever.
Just like I did when I found the box of memories in the garage of the house where mom and dad lived for 38 years.
Thanks, mom!
