Someone once said,
"Scent and words are alike.
If they are too strong, they overwhelm,
if too faint, they fail to reach.
But when they come from who you truly are,
they naturally find their way...
Perhaps this is true for both scent
and human connection."
The path we walk goes on, even as we take detours.
There are feelings and scenes that
remain unchanged across time.
At times, we struggle, feel uncertain, lose confidence.
At times, our hearts lift, we shed tears,
or sink into the quiet calm of everyday life.
We encounter moments and people that
remain vividly in our memories...
Even when we lose our way,
we find a place where we can pause and breathe.
And then, we begin to walk again.
The landscapes, the words, the air, the people
we meet along the way...
Each becomes a single scene within the scent of memory.
If I can continue to add to these creations little by little,
as a record of those scented memories...
And if they resonate with someone,
somewhere, that would make me truly happy.
