都会で感じる季節
Feeling the seasons in the city
毎日忙しい生活を送っていると、自然の変化に気づかないことが多いです。しかし、少し意識を変えるだけで、都会でも季節の移り変わりを感じることができます。
例えば、通勤の途中に咲いている花や、公園の木の葉の色が変わる様子です。春には桜が咲き、秋にはイチョウが黄色く染まります。忙しい時こそ、空を見上げたり、風の冷たさを感じたりする時間を作ることが大切です。自然はいつも私たちのすぐそばにあります。
Translation
When living a busy daily life, there are many times when we don't notice the changes in nature. However, just by changing your perspective a little, you can feel the changing of the seasons even in the city. For example, there are the flowers blooming on your commute or the way the leaves in the park change color. Cherry blossoms bloom in spring, and ginkgo trees turn yellow in autumn. Especially when you are busy, it is important to make time to look up at the sky or feel the coldness of the wind. Nature is always right beside us.
