THE WORDS THAT MOVED ME



These are the words that had moved me. They were not from lyrics, novels nor movies. All of them were spoken by people around me.



10."Do you know "Junrenka",
one of the songs of Tuyoshi Nagabuchi?"


It was a day when I was junior high school student. A pretty girl, one of my classmates told me above question. I didn't know the song so I answered her "No". Then she sang the song for me.

...A few years later, I listened to the original song at the first time. The lyrics of the song were like below.

"I love you, I love you. Why don't you know that I'm loving you?"

I had understood her words at the time...



9. "All of my children are excellent because I didn't care them."

These days, my mother always says above words. I worry that she becomes crazy... Do you think I am excellent? I answer on behalf of you.
"No!"



8."If you beat someone, you will be dismissed from company"

An old man told me words above when I was college student. It moved me because I was short-tempered in those days. ...But I have never been dismissed in spite of that I had beaten colleagues many times...



7."A fan kills the auther"

Mr. Suzuki, one of my friends told me so. And he said,
"I like novels you write. But you'd better not hear my opinion. Because you write novels not for me."
...Thank you so much to Mr.Suzuki!



6."When you have a date with your girlfriend,
you have to open the door for her"


Miss K, one of my friends told me so. Do you think it natural? Uh... the status of women is still lower than that of men in Japan. Most of the girls were glad when I opened the door for them.



5."You will be able to save money when you will be 35 years old"

A woman who had been in my company 13 years longer than I had told me so. And she said, "You're still 20's. You have to play more harder!". I think she didn't know that I played hard those days.



4."You don't have to study things for your work in your home"

When I started to work a company, my boss told me to read a reference book for my work. I asked "Can I borrow this book to read at my house?" to my boss because I couldn't finish reading it during working time. He said words above. I have respected him still now...



3."Because you did not put on any socks when I met you before".

When I was college student, my girlfriend presented me two pair of socks at Christmas. I asked "Why do you give me socks?" to her. She said words above... It was one of my sweet memories.



2."I wanted to live with my lover legitimately. So I married with him".

When I asked "Why did you married?" to Mrs. Yayoi, one of friends, she said words above. ...I felt it so good and was moved.



1."All of men usually have to have 10 dollar by his age".

My boss said the words above to me when I graduated from a university and started to work at a company. I didn't know how much I had to have money because I was a rookie. I have respected this lesson still now.
