I felt and learned a lot from my perticipation in the festival.
performance_2009_06_13_02.jpg It was a great opportunity that I was able to express the importance of peace in my only way of expression - reading my tanka with my own vocie.
I was very glad to know that the people in Okinawa accepted me and my performance.
