DARUMA in Sakura Hostel Asakusa
Have you ever seen this?
This is DARUMA.
People say that DARUMA can stand tall again even after falling seven times.
This is a lesson for people
to be patient and not to give up until they can overcome whatever challenge they are facing.
DARUMA has been a symbol of patience and effort in Japan.
And now, DARUMA is regarded more as a talisman of good luck to the Japanese.
At first, DARUMA doll has colorless, empty-looking eyes.
When we take on a new challenge, we paint one black eye onto the doll's face.
At the same time,
we write that challenge on the back of the doll.
In our case,
[ 千客万来 ] = Flood of Guests / Roaring Business
When we overcome the challenge or realize our dream,
the second eye is painted in celebration of success.
When will the second eye of our DARUMA be painted?
Your cooperation is definitely needed !!
We look forward to seeing you in Sakura Hostel Asakusa. (人´∀`).☆.。.:*
