こんばんは､こんにちは､おはようございます
改めまして､新しい一週間明けましておめでとうございます……
週末土曜日の午後降り始め､夕暮れから夜に掛けて止んでいた雪も
朝目が覚めカーテンを開くと､目に写る世界は久しぶりの雪景色に……
白く冷たい雪が積もった世界
そのまま毎朝目覚めると一番にする行動
こたつに入ったまま着替えサボテンへの水やり
日曜日の朝は少し温めの水と言うかお湯をあげそのまま雪景色の神社へふわふわの雪の積もった階段を下り
まだ足跡の少ない日曜日の早朝の町を傘をささず歩き向かいました
いつもとは雰囲気の違う雪化粧をした神社
より神聖な空気を感じました手水舎の水も凍り掛けていて冷たい
雪の積もった狛犬様達
祈り終え帰る道もどんどん足跡も消え積もっていくふわふわの雪
そのまま前回雪の降った時から玄関に置いていたスコップを取り階段の雪かき
でもやってもやっても積もっていく雪
大鍋でお湯を沸かし
雪かきした後の階段に何度か流し雪がすっかり消えた階段も
しばらくするとまた積もり
その繰り返しだっ日曜日の午前7時頃
最後には記念に雪だるまを造って写真を一枚
何故だか目に写る雪景色に体も心もぽかぽか
いくつになっても普段とは違う目に写る世界には心わくわくしてしまうものですね……
雪の無い冷たい世界より
雪のある冷たい世界の方があたたかく感じるのも心がわくわくしているからなのか……
雪景色の工業地帯もたまには良いものですね……
と思ったのも束の間
レッスンへさすがに電車で向かったのですが
大分余裕持って早め出たのに……
まず始まりから数分遅れその次の乗り換えも15分遅れその次の乗り換えも20分遅れ､その次はあと1分で出発する電車に間に合い
レッスン15分前に到着
朝の通勤ラッシュの時のような満員電車の連続
にぽかぽか……
いつもは30分前にはスタジオへ着き鍵を開け窓を開け換気したり準備したりだけど
余裕無く始まったレッスンで子供達とぽかぽかその後の二時間目の大人クラスでも汗だくに……
帰りはスタジオから二駅先の駅まで歩き
そこから電車に乗り川崎から家まで
また歩きめいいっぱい雪景色を満喫しながら
歩いて踊った日曜日
普段の自転車のありがたみも感じつつも
滅多に無いこの一瞬をめいいっぱい感じた週末でした
その日は帰宅が遅くなり弟の元へは逢いに行かずLINEで雪景色を送りました……
そしてその日は紺さんも一さんも弟に逢いに行ってくださり
家族からだけでなく何倍も伸輔は元気をもらっただろうなと感じ嬉しかったです……
気持ち良く晴れた始まりの月曜日
晴れた昨日も工業地帯の日影の街は水たまりも氷が張り雪も街中とは違い多く残っていたように感じました……
新しい一週間もジグザグな陽気､天気かもしれないけれど
それでもそんな一瞬一瞬をあたたかく感じ
行きましょう生きましょう
新しい一週間も心に優しい風がそっと吹きますように
今週もお身体大切に病なんかに負けず
強く優しくあたたかく
生きよう｡
先週もありがとうございます
今週も一週間よろしくお願いします……
また明日……

Winter flower : The snow that started falling on Saturday continued to fall and stop, and by Sunday the city was covered in snow……
Good evening, hello, good morning
Once again, happy new week…
The snow started falling on Saturday afternoon and stopped from dusk to night.
When you wake up in the morning and open the curtains, the world you see is a snowy landscape for the first time in a while…
A world covered in white, cold snow
The first thing you do when you wake up every morning
Changing clothes while under the kotatsu Watering the cactus
On Sunday mornings, I poured a little warm water, or should I say hot water, and went down the stairs covered with fluffy snow to the snow-covered shrine.
I walked without an umbrella through the town early on a Sunday morning, where there were still few footprints.
A snow-covered shrine with a different atmosphere than usual
I felt a more sacred atmosphere.The water at the chozyuya was also freezing cold.
Guardian dogs covered in snow
On the way home after praying, footprints disappear and the fluffy snow piles up.
I took the shovel that had been left at the entrance since the last time it snowed and shoveled the snow from the stairs.
But no matter what I try, the snow keeps piling up
Boil water in a large pot
After shoveling snow, there are also stairs where the snow has completely disappeared.
It will pile up again after a while
It was repeated around 7am on Sunday.
At the end, we built a snowman and took a photo as a souvenir.
For some reason, the sight of snow that appears in my eyes warms my body and soul.
No matter how old you are, it’s always exciting to see the world in a different way…
From a cold world without snow
Is it because my heart is excited that the cold world with snow feels warmer?
It’s nice to see a snowy industrial area once in a while…
I thought that for a moment
As expected, I headed to the lesson by train.
I left early with plenty of time to spare…
First, I was a few minutes late from the start, then the next transfer was 15 minutes late, then the next transfer was 20 minutes late, and then the next time I was in time for the train that was leaving in just one minute.
Arrive 15 minutes before the lesson
A series of crowded trains like during the morning rush hour
Warm and warm…
I usually arrive at the studio 30 minutes early, unlock the door, open the windows, ventilate, and prepare.
The lesson started with little time to spare, and I was warm with the kids.Then, in the second period of the adult class, I was drenched in sweat…
On the way home, I walked from the studio to the station two stops away.
From there, I took a train from Kawasaki to my house.
While walking and enjoying the snowy scenery as much as possible,
Sunday we walked and danced
Although I feel grateful for my regular bicycle,
It was a weekend where I felt this rare moment to the fullest.
I got home late that day, so instead of visiting my younger brother, I sent him a picture of the snow on LINE…
And on that day, both Kon-san and Hajime-san went to see their younger brother.
I was happy to feel that Shinsuke received many times more energy than just from his family…
A pleasant and sunny start to Monday
Even on a sunny day yesterday, it felt like there were a lot of puddles, ice, and snow in the shaded industrial area, unlike in the city…
The new week is full of zigzag cheerfulness, although it might just be the weather.
Still, each moment feels warm
Let’s go and live
May the gentle wind blow gently into your new week.
This week too, take care of your body and don’t give in to illness.
strong, gentle and warm
Let’s live.
Thank you for last week
Thank you for your continued support this week…
See you tomorrow…
