What I appreciate about Japanese culture is the way they demonstrate the essence of their values in everything they do. They never brag, or put other cultures down; they present themselves with excellence, grace and dignity.

Ikigai is a Japanese concept meaning "a reason for being." According to the Japanese, everyone has an ikigai. Finding it requires a deep and often lengthy search of self discovery and reflection. The word "ikigai" is usually used to indicate the source of value in one's life and the things that make one's life worthwhile.

Japanese culture has so much cool style and interesting way of looking at things.

My favorite Japanese expression is: Ikidakimasu. From my understanding, it not only is saying 'grace' before a meal, but being grateful for the infinite causes and conditions that have come together to make the meal possible.
