The time machine parked next to the work desk – Toyooka Toyo

Find something,

Work together with friends at home.

The sunshine in the autumn morning is warm, and the air outside the window is quiet and soft,
I sat at my work desk, looking at the toy cars and building blocks scattered around the computer. What came to mind from time to time was the young and curious eyes of the naughty little kid in my family.

There is a briefcase placed in a fixed position beside it. The bag is full of precipitation and thoughts.
In all the carefully arranged mezzanines, there are countless decisions and choices, ready to go.

Occasionally, let go of this familiar and heavy burden,
I couldn't help but feel a desire to find something that I could run with my friends at home.

The birth of a little baby in my family was full of panic and surprise. It not only brought endless joy, but also restarted my new understanding of life.

Looking back on my childhood, there were some things I didn’t have time to try, such as the starry sky above my head, which I never really recognized.
I also want to listen to the few birdsong that the poet Wang Wei heard in the gently flowing quiet night.

"The moonrise scares the mountain birds, and they sing in the spring streams."

With the birds singing outside the window, I looked at the work table in front of me. Although I felt that life was ordinary day after day, I realized that every moment can be cherished and is worth cherishing.

Take one more trip,
When I was a kid, I couldn't finish it in time.

This feeling of not being able to miss it again made me have an idea in my mind: together with my children, take another trip to the childhood that was too late to complete.

So I bought a new bag for our adventures and added a few special tools to it from time to time:

a compass,
I heard that compared to the modern version of Google Map, it prevents us from getting lost in the forest;

A starry sky observer,
Let’s learn the zodiac signs together on our camping nights;

There are also lightweight cameras,
It not only records our smiles, but also records every step of our children's growth.

This is the first bag that doesn’t belong to just me.
A bag that can not only contain future expectations, but also children’s curiosity and desire for life.
He is not just an object, but the anchor point of our home, the starting point for us to run a certain common lifestyle together.

This bag with a simple and calm name,Toyooka Tao also seems to represent some kind of enduring millennium inheritance.

Perhaps this is one of the most rewarding decisions I have ever made.

In this bag,
We put in each other's smiles, adventures, and explorations.

Whenever I watch my children curiously open their bags,
Or use the tools in your adventure,
I deeply feel that the value of that companionship far exceeds material things.
The carefully selected tools in the bag, including compasses, stargazers and cameras, are our best partners for adventure travel.

The sun slowly climbed onto my work table,ToyookaLean aside quietly.

The support, warmth and cohesion of home,In a visible form, it is always there.
