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

I introduce ''浜'' on this time.

This kanji is a popular form of a Chinese character of "濱".
''賓'' has a meaning "snuggling up to".
It is not only the sky and the ground to snuggle up on the beach.

The lovers snuggle up on the beach, too.


I introduce ''田'' on the next time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are pieces of peace.
