Pruning · 剪定 sentei
When you're ready to let something go, trim a branch. Nothing you've written is lost — each cut closes with a thin seam of gold, borrowed from kintsugi.
歳時
Your Almanac · 歳時記
Reflections, letters and the 72 micro-seasons
Fumi kept this pine for thirty-one years before it came to you. Her letters arrive at the moments that matter — never on a schedule, never with a deadline.

The old Japanese almanac divides the year into 72 micro-seasons of about five days each. Every micro-season you write in is stamped here — the ones you miss stay softly inked, because the tree lived them too.

🌱 Plant a new seed · 種まき
Start over from a seed. This permanently deletes your reflections, letters and growth on this device. Save a backup first if you might want them back.
Komorebi is a space for reflection, not a substitute for professional care. If you're struggling or in crisis, please reach out to someone you trust or a local crisis line (in the US, call or text 988).

縁側
Welcome to the engawa · 縁側
A pine seed has come to you from Fumi, who kept its parent tree for thirty-one years. It grows from the words you give it.
1Choose how today feels — gratitude, endurance, calm, letting go, a new intention, or a heavy day.
2Write a few honest lines to today's question from the 72 micro-seasons. One line is enough.
3Watch your bonsai answer — blossoms, maple leaves, new shoots — through seven stages, with letters from Fumi along the way.
No streaks. No deadlines. Nothing withers if you're away.

🌲 平常心 Heijōshin · Everyday calm

🍁 侘び寂び Wabi-sabi · Imperfect & passing
Maple leaves turn crimson and gold.
🌿 心 Kokoro · Heart & intentions
Pale new shoots appear at the tips.
🌧 雨 Ame · Heavy days
Soft rain on the moss. Rain isn't a punishment — it's how roots drink.
