I was born on the same day as Helen Keller, June 27, to my father's younger brother and his wife, and adopted by the main Yokoo family. My adoptive parents told me they found me under the bridge. Since small, I often lay beneath the stars imagining my destiny; and I likened myself to a firefly, which twinkles like a star. I know clearly that an invisible guardian spirit and the Rat of the Chinese zodiac have been my companions on my long voyage.
