"According to Road of Flowers, Mr. Kawashima's life has been a tremendous one." -Hakubu Shimomura, Minister of Education "I hope as many people as possible read his book to gain a better understanding of courage and to dream of a better future." -Tadao Chiba, Denmark-Japan Social Living Institute "Describing his life full of vicissitude, Camino de Flor is, so to speak, an autographic story and persuades us that nothing is impossible for a person who has a strong will." -Dr. Gregory of Tokyo University Life is a drama. Each person has their own drama and lives according to scenarios bestowed upon us by God. God bestows a simple life to some and tremendous drama to others. Whatever scenario a person faces, as long as we give all effort, we are all equally successful. In my case, being innocent and naive, I was faced with tremendous drama throughout my life. These experiences made me into the person I am today."
