Its A Match

A lovely Señora from deep in the heart of Mexico became the matriarch of the local gaijin community, representing the long-game foreigner crew in Japan—arriving in rural Ibaraki sometime in the mid-70s.

Indeed, Señora Josefina is a trilingual chatterbox, a woman of great fortitude and power.

Even more so, our Mexican big sister stands as an early pioneer of gaijin "My Japan."

She married Kenji straight out of university, having met and fallen in love in La La Land—also known as L.A., the City of Angels, or so they say.Kenji, a kindhearted and good-natured Japanese country gentleman, is an exemplar from a distant time and place.

The serendipity of this match—made in heaven and arranged, perhaps, by their respective tutelary deities—might be dismissed by some as mere coincidence.

Yet it cannot be cast aside so easily, given the extraordinary improbability of this union within the emerging singularity.

Once the quantum field has been observed, it can never be unseen—random events turn out to be instances of sublime synchronicity.Perhaps it was their tutelary deities colluding to unite these two sentient beings, scheming in the backroom of infinity alongside their Seities, subtly rejiggering the superposition within a spectral reality.

Unfortunately, her beloved husband Kenji came down with chronic kidney disease.

The dire prognosis was plain to see—for when kidneys fail, the end draws near in what we call "normal" reality.

Frantically, there was a search for a matching kidney—the difficulty of such a feat left Señora Josefina feeling helpless and bleak.

Yet in this unlikely story of two quantum beings, the stars aligned, and Señora Josefina herself proved to be the most improbable—yet perfect—match for her beloved husband's failing kidney.The success of such delicate, advanced medical procedures is always touch and go.

Yet in this ethereal picture show, the tutelary deities were smiling upon this match made in heaven, nestled among the celestial stars of these supernatural beings.

The operation was a complete success, which also greatly pleased their Seities.

As with all things in life-flow, people come and go.

Yet this fantastic story of Señora Josefina and Kenji is in harmony with flow.

Their love, anointed by their tutelary deities, transformed a tragic diagnosis into an extraordinary affirmation of belief.Life is an ephemeral dream.

This story stands as proof that the fleeting nature of life is never quite what it seems—for certain belief comes first, and then comes the capacity to see true reality.
