How do you greet people in your life?
There is the method of various greetings by countries. We shake hands and embrance each other and the kiss is a kind of greetings, too. Japanese greetings express by bow. When I respect a partner, I change the angle of the waist when partner is older than me. I think that this symbolizes Japanese humility.
This article about the president’s appeal resonated strongly with many people. There are the world’s poorest countries which Ukraine, South Africa, Mexico, Jamaica and the Philippines draw a larger share of older volunteers. Then, Leslie Michael first thought of joining the Peace Corps in college and resurfaced. She lived for cultural and language training. It is related to the Peace Corps, provides volunteers with a monthly stipend to cover rent, food, clothing and transportation. So, volunteers were placed to support.

How is our daily life affected by Buddhism
1. On a tray, we go for a visit to a grave. By the visit to a grave, we worship it from a green deep person to the deceased sequentially. Because the sun set in the due west in the Vernal Equinox Day, it was thought that I was western with the day when the said Buddhists’ paradise and world crossed. We came to do a visit to a grave to hold a service for an ancestral soul in this time. The reason is because it is said that a heart is easy to go the Buddhists paradise most.
2. On the equinoctial week of the spring when the flower of the peony blooms, we eat a rice dumpling covered with red bean paste. On the other hands, on the autumn equinoctial week when a flower of a common reed blooms, we eat a rice dumpling covered with bean jam.
3. When we eat meal, we must not prick the rice with chopsticks. Originally, because prick to rice when a person died.
4. The twelve horary signs to express the sexagenary cycle are used for the current time and the indication of the direction.
5. When I cook rice, we offer it for the deceased at the altar. I think this is a small token of our gratitude.
