The philosophy of mujo (無常) goes back centuries, long before modern history — it’s about the natural impermanence in all things.

OS Yamato isn’t about erasing memory, but encouraging us to reflect on what we choose to keep. Sometimes, letting go is part of how we grow.

Appreciate the thoughtful pushback.
