shrink

From a smartphone screen one day (several years ago)

such as diving into water、The human body shrinks under water pressure.。The deeper you dive, the higher the water pressure becomes.、the body shrinks even more。

The human body ages (although the process may differ slightly depending on gender, race, etc.)、In particular, the skeleton shrinks due to a decrease in cartilage tissue.、well known from experience。

Men's T-shirts etc.、Much rougher than women's size ranks、BasicS,There are only about 4 types of M.L.LL (I feel like there were a few more options for jackets and suits)、I no longer wear it and have forgotten about it)。Until a few years ago、If it's made in Japan, I usually go to size L (sometimes LL) and have no problems.。But recently、My wife bought me a size M shirt without permission.。Sometimes S too。surely、Jeans I used to wear、I was aware that it had gone from being “perfect” to being more like a hakama.。

The brain is also a part of the body、It wouldn't be surprising if it shrunk to the same extent as the others.。The skull is hard and doesn't shrink that much.、Maybe my head is hollow。by the way、I feel like I can hear echoes in my head lately.。memory、judgment、Having a negative awareness of your thinking ability is also a big deal.、Not just the size、It seems that the quality and density are shrinking.。I also want to hear stories about gaining weight.。

depth of love 2

"芍薬ー2024·May" Watercolor F6

What is “depth of love”?、After all, isn't it very similar to "depth of interest"?、It is a sport that is firmly connected to the essence of current sports.。for example、the other day、I wrote about Fujiko Hemming.、her love for the piano、interest in piano、depth of interest、I don't think the person himself can tell that much apart.。

A parent's love for their child、what the child feels、thought、what's going on now、they are interested、Isn't it possible to translate it into depth of interest?。If you are forced to divide、How do I relate to that and try to live my life?、Although there may be differences in active positions,、in her case、I don't think there is much of a difference.。

What if、If the idea is correct、for example、The depth of love for painting can be said to be the depth of interest in painting.。however、That is、People who don't draw have less (shallower) love for painting than people who draw.、doesn't mean anything at all。I like drawing、I like watching、I think they are different things。Even if you don't draw it、favorite painter、work、history of art、Art related technologies, etc.、What is your interest?、No matter which one you choose, there's something infinitely deep about each one of them.。
in short、in one street、For things that can't be done、Would it be an exaggeration to say that I feel love for all of them?。Whether it's sweets love or ramen love、There's always something of your own、For example time、For example, physical strength、For example, money、There is something like an urge to ``want to know more deeply'' and ``want to be deeply involved'' even if it is a burden.。Isn't it okay to call it love?、This person is building his "own" snowboard "road"。

we are not machines。Does not have the precision or strength of a machine。It is impossible to have the memory and calculation speed of a computer.。間違い無駄なことを繰り返すけれど止められない知りたいこともっと関わりたいことがあるそれは愛と同じものではないか?
 自分の胸に手を当てて考えてみるなにかを愛しているだろうか

ability

"Dendrobium" watercolor

I've lost a lot of abilities lately.、It's like a catchphrase.、I started writing.。actual、Because I started to feel that way、What is actually human ability?、It seems that it cannot be compared so easily.。

Of course, it is not possible to simply compare the differences in abilities between humans and other animals.。Although he prides himself on ranking himself at the top, calling himself a ``primate,''、Items to be compared、Only from a human perspective。Only things that are easy to compare from a human perspective、invisible to humans。Even among those people、specific abilities、For example, learning ability (although this term is ambiguous)、Athletic ability、etc,etc.It was popular for a while.、○○ power is also like that.。that's why、Actually, there's no need for me to be so depressed either.。

live by the seaside、It's called lugworm、There are creatures that are at most ten centimeters long.。If you think of a centipede on the shore, the image is similar.。I catch it and use it as bait.、To this lugworm、I've been bitten hard enough to draw blood.。
I was surprised and looked at the mouth part.、They have small but impressive fangs。that's why、“If you catch it, immediately cut off its head with scissors.”、I vaguely remembered the meaning of the teachings、That's when I understood for the first time。And I can't even hold on to this guy.。No matter how hard I hold it、It feels like a subring or coil made of steel.、Push away the jerky fingers、It slips out from between my fingers。The crevices of mussels (small shellfish similar to mussels) growing densely on rocks? It's so easy to sneak into、The ability of humans to close their fingers is not an issue.。

Such an amazing ability、There is no point in evaluating it from a human perspective.。humans run、Because I can swim、I just compared it to a cheetah、I sometimes compare it to dolphins.、For example, with terrifying abilities like the lugworm.、Human imagination can't keep up。Squid or octopus?、Expanding or contracting the pigment on the body surface、Many people know that they can change their body color, but、There is also no point in evaluating it using a human scale.。Simply、I can only say it's amazing。The earth is full of such creatures.。
that's why、Maybe we don't have to look down on us old people so much.。Maybe、Even if it's blurry、If you change your perspective、Maybe it's a skill that has been successfully acquired.。Pretending to be kind to socially disadvantaged people、Plans to force eviction for good health、enterprise、There is a need to be content with one-sided evaluations from a policy perspective, etc.、Maybe not.。
