Hi Friends,
As I mentioned in the campaign, "IKIGAI" was inspired by my time spent in Okinawa with Grandmaster Choichi Terukina. Several years ago, National Geographic came out with some of the Okinawan Living Treasures of Japan. I would like to share with you, so that you get to know Terukina-Sensei a little bit and know why he has been an inspirations to many people around the world.

Let's keep sharing so that Okinawans will have a voice in American literature.
