The obligations of society can often push us to our limit.
ぎりぎりまでに生きている義理のため。義理ぎり。

It is nice to say ‘yes’ to everyone, and apologize for everything. It is also exhausting. We bond more strongly to our obligations than we do to each other. We do all the right things to maintain harmony and are left with a pretty picture.

An old pond, no jumping in!, the sound of loneliness.
古い池や、飛び込み禁止だ、孤独の音

誰にでも『yes』と言って、何でも謝るのはいいことだ。それはまた疲れることでもある。私たちは互いよりも義務に強く結びついている。私たちは調和を保つために正しいことをし、きれいな絵を残す。


Everybody needs a little time away, somewhere to go and let their guard down. Relax. A place you can come in, sit down, and just say, “Hi.”

誰だって少し離れて、油断できる場所が必要だ。リラックスして。入って、座って、ただ “Hi “と言える場所。
