It's been a while since I posted something. Happy 2023! 

I recently watched The Glory and am currently watching My Name on Netflix. They are similar because both of the lead characters are seeking revenge. 

It got me thinking.

Since two wrongs don't make a right, should we always be the bigger person and show mercy?

To forgive and forget?
To forgive but never forget?

Or

An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

Is there a limit to what we can put up with as humans? What do we do if someone crosses that line?

It was fascinating and I am enjoying My Name so far. I will watch the final episode tonight and post my thoughts after that. 

(A little disclaimer: they are both disturbing so do not watch either of them if the nature of the show is something you are sensitive to.)

"The Glory": A K-Drama About Revenge!

RESTARE IN FORMA: perché dopo una certa età... sono cavoli amari!

In questo episodio parliamo di un argomento che riguarda moltissime donne: il rapporto con il nostro corpo, il peso e l'alimentazione.

Restare in forma non significa inseguire la perfezione o vivere a dieta, ma capire che, soprattutto con il passare degli anni, il nostro corpo cambia e dobbiamo imparare a prendercene cura.

Parleremo di alimentazione, metabolismo, movimento e di quelle piccole abitudini che spesso sottovalutiamo. Perché diciamocelo: mangiare senza pensarci troppo oggi potrebbe presentarci il conto domani.

E allora sì, ogni tanto bisogna fare attenzione a quello che mettiamo nel piatto... perché altrimenti sono davvero cavoli amari!

Cavoli Amari

Script

おはようございます。日本語だんだんポットキャストのゆかりです。

私はいま日本を出て、

海外旅行(かいがいりょこう)をしています。

きのうは、トラブルがありました。

なんと、カフェでかばんを盗(ぬす)まれました。

盗まれる、つまり誰(だれ)かがかばんをもっていきました。

私の夫(おっと)のかばんが、なくなりました。

かばんの中には、カメラがはいっていました。

この旅行のために、買ったカメラです。

とても残念(ざんねん)です。

さいふやパスポートは、入っていませんでした。

スマホも大丈夫(だいじょうぶ)でした。

でも大切(たいせつ)なカメラとかばんが••。

盗まれたことに気づいて、警察(けいさつ)に行きました。

とても時間(じかん)がかかりました。

でも、警察の人は親切(しんせつ)で、元気になりました。

「私のさいふが盗まれました。」
「私のかばんがありません。たぶん盗れましれまた。」

といいます。

日本で、このフレーズをみなさんがつかうことがないことをねがっています。

では、今日も最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだんです。

また明日。
