Title Every Day Can Be a Good Day 🌿 A Clear Tokyo Morning with Two Bonsai | Day 593
Description Day 593 🌿 August 19, 2026 — 5:45 AM Tokyo, Japan
Good morning from Tokyo.
It is still warm and humid this morning, but the air feels unusually clear and fresh.
The sky is bright and blue, with only a few clouds.
It is one of those quiet summer mornings when simply looking at the sky makes the beginning of the day feel a little different.
This morning, I checked my two bonsai again — Asahiyama Sakura and Serissa.
Yesterday, I removed some of the moss from the Asahiyama Sakura.
When I looked at it again this morning, the moss had not spread.
The Serissa also looked calm today.
I could not see any insects on the surface of the moss, and it did not appear to be dry.
Nothing dramatic has happened.
No flowers have suddenly appeared.
There has been no big change.
But perhaps that is exactly why today’s Zen phrase came to mind:
日々是好日 — Hibi Kore Kōjitsu
It is often translated as:
“Every day is a good day.”
But I do not think it simply means that every day must be happy, comfortable, or perfect.
Some days bring problems.
Some days bring small improvements.
And some days seem to bring almost no change at all.
With bonsai, every morning is slightly different.
The moss may be dry one day and moist the next.
An insect may appear and then disappear.
A branch may weaken.
Or everything may simply remain quiet.
Rather than deciding immediately whether the day is “good” or “bad”, perhaps we can first notice what is actually here.
This morning, the sky is clear.
The moss has not spread on the Asahiyama Sakura.
The Serissa is not dry, and I cannot see any insects on its surface.
These are small observations, but they belong to this particular morning.
Hibi Kore Kōjitsu.
Today does not need to be extraordinary to have value.
On this clear and humid Tokyo morning, I’ll spend a little more time with these two bonsai and simply accept today as it is. 🌿
