Angels of light descending onto the snowy fields

Tuesday, February 10, 2026

It's 16 degrees below zero. Even your breath freezes white on a quiet morning in Hokuryu Town.

If you look at the fluffy snow surface, you will see countless tiny "snow crystal angels" dancing joyfully in the spotlight of the morning sun.

Sparkle! Sparkle!

Its sparkle, as if studded with diamonds, never stays the same for even a moment, a small miracle in everyday life.

It is a festival of warm light that gently envelops the people who live dignifiedly through the harsh winter.

As the sun peeked out its gentle face from behind the buildings, the pure white snow field instantly began to take on a rainbow-colored veil.

With boundless love, gratitude and prayers, this precious light will fill the hearts of all people with the light of "harmony."
