Hi there. Hope everyone out there is doing awesome! It’s almost weekend. How is your studying coming along? Hope you will get to learn some of the new phrases today here in my blog. 🙂

Today’s topic is all about the word “kichō” , which means, “precious” or “valuable”.  As we go though our day to day routine, either work, study, or whatever you are going through, we often take things for granted, but we all know that nothing is permanent. It is such a blessing to be able to appreciate what we have even though things might not be perfect at this time. I hope you will enjoy every minute of your day today, tomorrow, and everyday going forward. Read on~.
