The long weekend has passed, and with it came an unexpected turn in the weather—heat giving way to sudden rains, almost as if nature itself is calling for a pause.
As the Obon season begins, a sense of quiet reflection settles in. Many businesses slow their pace, and families gather, not for urgency, but for remembrance.
In this stillness, we as butlers remain attentive to the smallest comforts—drying your umbrella, warming a towel after rain, and ensuring your home feels like a sanctuary.
May these first days of Obon be gentle and restorative.
