森の中の静けさ
Silence in the Forest
週末、都会の騒がしさを忘れるために、近くの森へ出かけました。深い木々の間を歩いていると、鳥の声や風が葉を揺らす音だけが聞こえてきます。
普段はスマートフォンばかり見ていますが、自然の中にいると、不思議とデジタル機器のことが気にならなくなります。ただ木を見上げたり、土の匂いを感じたりするだけで、心の中がとても静かになるのを感じました。たまにはこうして、自然の中でゆっくり過ごす時間も大切ですね。
Translation
On the weekend, I went to a nearby forest to forget the hustle and bustle of the city. As I walked among the deep trees, I could hear only the sounds of birds and the wind shaking the leaves. I usually look at my smartphone all the time, but when I am in nature, strangely, I stop worrying about digital devices. Just looking up at the trees and feeling the smell of the soil made me feel very calm inside. It is important to spend time slowly in nature like this once in a while.
