Gingko Tree

The Gingko Tree symbolizes longevity because it can live for thousands of years and it is also known for its profound endurance. I hope that most trees are like the gingkos so that future generation can see all of its beauty.

Last November was my first ever fall foliage experience at Yahiko Mountain in Niigata. I definitely felt ecstatic looking at the various trees with different colors. Looking at them, I realized that some endings can be beautiful, too.
