Depending on which world you look at, the scenery changes.
The other day, I finished a shopping cruise in Kyoto.
The last day was the day of heavy snow.
I was planning to go sightseeing only that day,
It's all snow outside.
"I can't go anywhere with this snow..."
Stay at the hotel and go home early.
That's how I thought.
However, since I came all the way here,
i was just going to stop by one place and go home.
Last year, I walked with you to see the trees.
I aimed and got into a taxi.
On the move, casually
When I said, "Snow scenes also have emotions, don't they?"
The driver...
Even if you live in Kyoto,
I can't see such a snow scene,
We have a customer. "
Answer me,
One word changed the world.
What was "a little troubled snow" until a while ago,
"Special scenery that is hard to meet"
It has changed.
Snow falling on the dark roof building.
Soft white on the trees.
The air is calm and dignified.
The extraordinary beautiful Kyoto was there.
In fact, nothing has changed.
The snow and the city are the same.
What has changed is,
It was my "inside."
Which world do you decide to see?
What meaning do you give?
Just because of that, the scenery outside looks completely different.
than the event itself,
By "the interpretation of my inner self"
It may be colored.
The snow scene of that day,
It became one of the sceneries that remained in my heart.

私も以前、雪が降る日に旅先で予定変更を余儀なくされた経験があります。その時は最初、寒くて移動も大変だし、観光は諦めようと気持ちが沈んでいました。しかし、地元の人に勧められて少しだけ外に出てみると、普段見慣れた景色が雪に覆われてしんと静まりかえり、まるで別世界のように感じられ ました。 例えば、雪で覆われた神社の静謐な雰囲気や、こぼれ落ちそうな枝に積もった白い雪の繊細な造形に目を奪われるなど、普段は感じることのない美しさに気づきました。外の世界は変わっていないのに、自分の視点や心の状態が変わったことで「特別な風景」に変わったのです。 旅の中でのこうした経験は、日常生活にも通じることだと思います。同じ出来事でも、どんな意味を与えるかは自分次第。ネガティブに捉えれば辛く感じますが、ポジティブに見れば新しい発見や喜びに出会えます。 この著者の京都の雪景色の体験は、そのことを教えてくれます。待ち望んだ旅の最終日に大雪となっても、心の向け方で「特別な思い出」として心に刻まれました。私も旅先での自然の変化や人との何気ない会話が新たな視点を与えてくれることを信じて、積極的に外の世界を見る力を養いたいと思いました。
