森の静けさ
The Silence of the Forest
週末、私は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。深い緑の中に立つと、空気の冷たさと木の香りが体全体を包み込みます。普段はスマートフォンの通知音ばかり聞いていますが、ここでは鳥のさえずりや、風で葉が揺れる音だけが聞こえてきます。
自然の中にいると、不思議と心が落ち着きます。悩み事があっても、森の静けさがそれを小さくしてくれるような気がします。たまにはデジタルの世界から離れて、ただ木々を眺める時間を作ることは、現代人にとって本当に大切なことなのかもしれません。
Translation
On the weekend, I went to a nearby forest to forget the noise of the city. Standing in the deep green, the cold air and the scent of the trees wrapped around my whole body. I usually only listen to smartphone notification sounds, but here, I can only hear the chirping of birds and the sound of leaves rustling in the wind. When I am in nature, my heart strangely calms down. Even if I have worries, I feel like the silence of the forest makes them smaller. Perhaps taking time to step away from the digital world and just look at the trees is truly important for modern people.
