For outsiders though, the connection is more superficial. People go out for long walks through cherry yards and Facebook feeds are suddenly filled with cherry coloured profile pics. For me personally, cherry blossoms are a time when it gives you immense joy to just look out of the hostel room window and see green mountains with spurts of pink on all of them.
Cherry blossoms are also a reminder that nature is something that we should not take for granted. We could cherish what Mother Nature has given us and we should fight to conserve it. I have always been drawn to the idea of conservation and cherry blossoms give me another budge to that direction. Which is why, if given a chance, I would like to contribute to the ABG Renewables sector.
