といいますか、
一粒の
りんご！
りんごの樹にくっついた虫を振り落とそうと、樹をゆっさゆっさとゆらしたところ、ポロリと落ちてしまったのだそうです。
落ちてしまったのは残念ですが、
それでも一年目で実がつくなどとは思っていなかったので、特別な実なのです。
My husband Koji Abe brought a baby green apple (so cute !) to home from his mini orchard in Chiba, Japan. He started to cultivate his wilderness after attending to the Charlotte Gerson's 90th birthday party in San Diego, March 2012.
At the party, the Gerson Institute presented to Charlotte the special organic orchard as a bithday gift. Koji was impressed by it.
Yeseterday, unfortunately, this tiny apple was fallen down from a apple tree of the Koji's garden. But this one is so precious one for us.

At the birthday party, we brought a sculpture art work named 'Charlotte's apple', to the party as a gift to Charlotte. This art work was curved by Masanori Ota, a famous artist and our friend.
Apple is a so symbolic fruit that we know it in the Holy Bible, Newton's story, Apple computer, NY 'the Big Apple' etc... And in the Gerson Therapy, too.
Dr. Max Gerson cured himself from his severe migrain by apples. It was the origin of the Gerson Therapy. Now many people in the world who heal themselves from cancer and the other chronic disease by the Gerson Therapy use organic apples with organic vegetables everyday. And as a daughter of the extraordinary doctor, Charlotte is sharing this very natural amd strong healing method to the people in the world.
She grown(and is growing) Dr. Max Gerson's legacy from a hopeful apple seed to the plentiful harvest.

聖書にも出てきますし、ニュートンが引力を発見したときのストーリーでも語られますし、アップルコンピューターもリンゴがトレードマーク、ニューヨークの愛称を「ビッグ・アップル」なんて言ったりもします。
そして、ゲルソン療法でも、リンゴは大事な果物です。
マックス・ゲルソンが、自分の片頭痛を治したのがリンゴだったからです。
この食事療法が発端になって、現在のゲルソン療法の歴史が始まりました。
特別なりんご、なので、我が家の床の間にある石の彫刻（彫刻家、太田雅典さんの作品「シャルロッテのりんご」の、もう一つの作品です。本物の「シャルロッテのりんご」は、サンディエゴのボニータにある、シャルロッテ・ゲルソンさんのご自宅に飾られています）の上に飾っております。鏡餅みたいになっちゃいましたね。 We placed this first apple on the top of the another 'Charlotte's Apple' at home.This stone work is the prototype of 'the Charlotte's Apple' by Masanori Ota.
