Sea Glass

This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-NC-ND

On one of my best days, I was walking along a beach in southern Japan collecting sea glass. I had taken a train ride to the closest beach to my apartment. I had only been in Japan for a couple weeks, and as an American living by myself it felt pretty lonely. I was not questioning my purpose for coming to Japan to teach English, but living in a new culture was much harder than I thought it would be. As I was walking along the beach searching for sea glass, I looked up and a Japanese boy about my age dropped a handful of sea glass into my palms. He and his two friends took me out for noodles, and then we went to some hot springs. We were listening to old American songs like “Stand by Me” as one of the young men drove his SUV up the winding mountain roads lined with cedar trees. One of the boys stood up with his torso outside the sun roof as we drove. It was just a perfect day. When evening came, the three guys drove me back to my apartment. We exchanged phone numbers, but I never saw them again.
