FAMILY

When do you feel you are happy most? What's the most precious happiness for you?
あなたはいつ幸せを感じますか？何が最もかけがえのない幸せですか？

For me, it is definetely staying with my family, becuase they make me fun, happy and what's more, more energetic.
僕にとっては、家族との時間です。
楽しくて、幸せで、元気にしてくれます。

A few weeks ago, when I went home and felt exhausted reflecting how I was bad at speaking in classes, my wife came and told me an interesting and funny story.
数週間前の話。その日あんま授業でうまく話せなかったなぁ〜と反省しながら疲れて家に帰ると、妻が面白い話をしてくれました。

She said "I felt that infant is very pure."
「子どもって、ほんとにピュアだよなぁ」と言いました。

That day, our daughter, who can now speak not only just a few words, but a few sentences, said something funny.
その日、最近色んなことを話すようになってきた娘が、面白いことを言ったそうです。

She said "it's shining. it's beautiful", looking at her own No.2, which all of adults would never say.
自分のうんちをみながら、
「キラキラ〜、綺麗」
大人やったら誰も言わないであろうセリフ。

When I heard that story and my wife's respose to it, I laughted a lot, and I felt relaxed.
この話、そして妻の反応を聞いた時、めっちゃ笑ってしまい、同時にリラックスできました。

I want to thank my family, who always makes me feel good.
いつも、幸せに感じさせてくれる家族に感謝です。

I always go to work before they wake up, and come back after they felt asleep.
I can't have a day-off.
But they always smiles at me when we are together.
いつも起きる前にでて、寝たあとに帰って来る。
1日休みもほとんどない。
そんな状況でも、一緒にいるときは笑ってくれる。

I don't want to take them for granted.
I don't want them to take me for granted.
"当たり前"にしないようにしたい。

, because they are the most precious happiness for me.
とってもかけがえのない存在だから。
