みんなひとり [ 松隆子 ]

作詞: 竹内まりや
作曲: 竹内まりや

荒んだ世界に　あなたのような人が
いることに感謝
夢が遠く見えて　肩落とす夜は
電話をさせてよ
恋人ともちがう　大切な心友(ともだち)
代わりのきかない私の相棒

みんなひとりぼっち　探し続けるのは
確かな絆とその証
誰かのひとことで　明日もがんばると
思えるなんてすてきさ

わけもなくふさぎ　プチうつな自分が
嫌いになる日も
あなたの笑顔の　大きな力に
励まされるんだ
どんな強い人も　弱さを隠してる
外には出せない傷抱えながら

みんなひとりぼっち　それを知るからなお
あなたの大事さがわかるよ
心の片すみで　気にかけてくれてる
恋よりも強い味方

Ah, たまには私を　Ah, 頼ってもいいよ

生まれる時ひとり　最期もまたひとり
だから生きてるあいだだけは
小さなぬくもりや　ふとした　優しさを
求めずにはいられない

Everybody needs to be needed
Everybody wants to be wanted
'Cause everybody knows that we are all alone
Let me give my gratitude to you
For always being there and smile for me
Many many thanks to you, the best friend of mine
Many many thanks to you, the best friend of mine

[ 不完夢 ]

徒然造過幾多不完的夢｡

現在我停滯於時間面前, 沈澱｡
沈澱得, 幾乎所有感覺都失去了...

我真的快要忘記了,
也許忘了比較好...

想要想的人
卻還未在人海中找到
那個對的人...

一次又一次
找錯了
摔倒了
把別人都傷了
背著一大堆污穢的過去
還有哪裡可以讓我停靠...?

お誕生日おめでとう

[ Just A Little Pith of the Day ]

So, 20th.

Looking back
at all my 20 years of life
I could've written a 20-page or longer story.
My life has been so blessed yes...
And I thank God, my mom and dad here,
for taking part in bringing me to the world,
and raising me all these years.
They are the best parents for me.
And they are the reason why I even exist today.


March 2nd.
It's always been one of the most special days every year.
it came from a day that I expected the wishes,
looked forward to the gifts,
to a day that reminds me of how thankful I should be about life.
I have not really met any friends who share the same birthday,
but I am learning that it's not, only, MY day...

Life is humourous,
it connects us in a subtle way.

I don't know about the others but,
sharing the same or close birthday, for me,
is a big deal.

Unfortunately there isn't any adequate word in English
for "緣份" but, I do believe in this beautiful thing.
(maybe "fate" would do... but still not enough)
That's always been my principle,
to try to be thankful for anything and anyone
that comes into my life.


Well and this year,
as facebook is being abused, sort of,
and relied on,
I decided to hide my birthdate from yesterday onwards.
It doesn't really mean anything
when someone says "happy birthday" to you
just because it's listed somewhere on the page
and was seen by chance,
while they barely even talk to you.
But many many thanks
to those who still remember.


Another special impressive thing of the day,
was the play, "The Vagina Monologue".
Some of my friends were in the play,
and I appreciated their performance a lot.
It was not an easy or comfortable play to watch,
it was dirty, to a certain extent.
But if it's chewed
(in a way that it's supposed to be chewed, of course),
it opens up our narrow minds.

Aren't you amazed that how we are delicately made?
Aren't you shocked by how many people are suffering
in those many parts of the world?
I certainly am.
We are wonderfully made,
to appreciate ourselves in an appropriate way.
And we are refinedly made,
to be able to comprehend
such subtle differences between
those dirty jokes and the seriousness behind.

So shouldn't we just be brave to face it?
Anything created were meant to be beautiful,
why are they all ugly and filthy today...?



Anyway. Just a lil thought.
I talked to Mr. Tom Nelson today too, about religion.
Well over all
it was an interesting and thought-provoking day.
I'm glad. (But I think I gotta go to sleep now!)

I am starting my new decade of life.
They say it's gonna be the best part of life, and
I do look forward to it.

What's gonna happen to me next? We'll see.


Love,
Naomi

btw. ps. 你越是想要誠懇 其實越殘忍...
みんなさん、今日は有難う御座いました、お休みなさい！

The last day of my teens.

So it's finally March.
It's finally the last day of my teens...
You know how ironic sometimes life gets?
Her birthday is the day right before mine: today.
Wow. World.

But it doesn't really matter now does it?

[ t.t.y.l ]

The package from home finally arrived, and that delights my day.
I've read the letters, eaten some snacks, and missed home all over again...
It's just the tears haven't yet welled up in my eyes, but in my heart.
Home, sweet home...
20 years of life.
I believe I should be the most thankful about my family.
I can never ask for more about that...

Happy early birthday, Naomi.
