Standing in Front of the Fire


During the dontosai festival, people burn the previous year's and New Year's decorations, charms, and other items as a way to pray for good fortune in the coming year.

This year I burned some of my shodo practice sheets. My teacher said it would [is thought to] increase my skill.
