////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I introduce ''岩'' on this time.

This kanji has the meaning "rugged'', ''hard'' and ''big''.
Does not it show the form like that, too?


I introduce ''砂'' on the next time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are piece of peace.
