entry one - the legend_
it was a normal snowy day at the base of mount. tanpopo. i had waken up and braided my hair in two pieces. it didnt take long because most of my hair was short. everything was a routene for me. get up, brush my teeth, do my hair, get dressed. everything.......just, normal. it always annoyed me. but i was so happy to be alive that i just ignored it. but today was slightly difforent than the others.
the date was february 5th. my 11th birthday. now that i think about it, im not sure why i even call it that. i dont remember the day that i was born. i dont even remember my mother. you see, when i was born, apparently my mother ran away. i alone with my father. he would always tell me how beautiful my mother was. i would just sit there and listen with great wonder.
well anyway, since today was my birth day my father was going to take me on a trip to a shrine on top of the mountain. it was known as the dandelion shrine.
the dandelion shrine had a feild of dandelions. whenever the wind blew, the dandelions would brake apart and fly across the air like snow. the legend states that a beautiful godess lived in the srine and she protected the mountain and everything around the mountain. the would sing every thime the wind blew.
it was also said that her voice was as beautiful as wind chimes. and every time she sings the earth is blessed with bountiful food and water. thats why every one has wind chimes on their porch. the villige that i live in beleaves that the legend is true. they say that without the goddes, we would have no food or water. but of course being as young as i was, it was the least of my worries. i only wanted to go the the mountain t see the dandelions fly like snow_
