Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of Choice.

Success is a journey, not the destination.

Kodomo no hi celebrations in Japan.

📍Happy "Kodomo no Hi" my friends.

Today ~ May 5th is Children's Day in #Japan.
Let us sing this song ~

🎶Yane yori takai koinobori,
Ookii magoi wa otousan,
Chiisai nigoi wa kodomotachi,
Omoshirosouni oyoidaru.

🎶meaning in English-
The koinobori are higher than the rooftops,
The big black carp is the father,
The small golden red carp is the child,
How pleasing it is to swim!

Children are stars. Fish fly.
Schools have the day off today.
#TogetherWeCanAllWin

The main symbol of "Kodomo no Hi" is the koinobori, or carp streamer. The carp streamers are often hung from a pole in one's home or across a stream for display all across Japan.
Koinobori Festival also being held concurrently in most parts in Japan but this year the festival is being cancelled due to the pandemic outbreak.
