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

I introduce ''雷'' on this time.

This Kanji has a meaning "the energy of the [ + ] and [ - ] piles up in a rain cloud".
It is expected that "When this kanji was made, the people have already known structure of the thunder".


I introduce ''蕾'' on the next time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are pieces of peace.
