Reveal

When one of the old houses nearby was torn down (with the ridiculous speed that this country exhibits), what was left over was not just rubble but a small Japanese garden and an old shrine.  As there are no markers of any sort, it would be impossible to guess on a date for it, but its very appearance was hidden by the house, perhaps being contained inside of it. What I do know is that in the many times I walked by it, I wondered what it used to be (the ground level being a store, but with no signage).  Again, it shows how nothing lasts forever- although I do hope that the shrine continues to be there.  Even more wonderful, though highly unlikely, is if it becomes a small park or rest area.  One can dream.
