I am looking ahead to 2019 and the coming years with excitement and optimism for my clients and staff.
The bamboo and pine arrangement depicted above is a Japanese good luck symbol.
The pine represents trees, because they are a place where the spirits of the deities reside.
The bamboo thwarts off the troubles of life because it always grows straight up towards the sky.
The flowers that bloom during winter represent strength and durability, in addition to fortune.
These kadomatsu are placed in pairs at the entrance to homes and businesses, to serve as a gateway for the gods to visit.
My office manager Jodi Hayashida placed these on our reception desk to bring in good luck, happiness and prosperity to my new law firm.
I am so thankful for the many blessings and opportunities over the years. We look forward to an amazing 2019 Happy New Year!
