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

I introduce ''泡'' on this time.

When we express a short-lived thing, we use this kanji.
When we express a beautiful thing, we use this kanji, too.

As for the short-lived thing, the beauty of the instant is splendid.
Like the bubble of soap bubbles. . .


I introduce ''浜'' on the next time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are pieces of peace.
