The new year has begun and I feel like the hard work I put into my Japanese is finally begining to pay off. I feel that it is starting to come naturally to me. The feeling that has come to me is a little hard to describe in words, However, you will know the feeling that I am talking about if you have reached this level of a language. You don’t have to think about your words because they just flow from your lips and yours thoughts are heart felt. I wish the best to all those that continue to study this language or any other for that matter. Happy New Year, Dave
