Is this a destiny?

 Hello Everyone. How are you?
I am at home with my big belly, which is almost bursting.
I am so tired of doing anything.
I just hope the baby will come out soon.

 Last time when I went to the (obstetrics and gynecology) hospital,
the doctor said, ' It is not strange at all if the baby comes out tomorrow. '
Although it's 36 weeks now, the baby's weight is more than 2.5 kg which is average at this period.
I thought, 'Oh, that's good, please come out soon my baby~~'.

 While holding the big belly, I still have many things to prepare for the new baby. First, 'Cleaning and organizing my room'.
My room is fulled with THINGS. For example, things of my own, such as books, clothes, etc.... and then, my daughter's things, such as toys, books, clothes, furniture....
 
And more, but these are special things that I've got from some kind people for the new baby!
6 tatami-mat-room isn't big enough no matter how hard I try to rearrange these things.

Yesterday, I finally decided to take action to make some space for the new baby, it meant 'to get rid of things of MY OWN'.

 I took out almost all my books, which were my favorite books from bookshelves and decided to sell them to the used book shop.
Then, I happened to find my diaries and albums when I had been in Australia more than 10 years ago!

Diaries and Albums

 I just realized that since the time when I had come back to Japan, I never opened them at all.

 When I came back to Japan, I could find a new job soon and my life became very busy shortly.

 I opened them and remembered how my life had been over there. Many memories came rushing into my mind.Right then, many things came back to me once again.The people I had met over there, the cities, the towns, the things that I had experienced. Until now, I've totally forgotten them.

 Looking back on those days, I would say they are my precious memories although there are some bitter experiences. I will never experience those special days anymore in my life.
 
 And I can say that, they are parts of myself. Because of the experience in Australia, here I am.I felt this as a kind of destiny to remember my Australia.

 From next blog, I will start writing about the days when I was in Australia.
