「お母さんは、人間は恐ろしいものだって
おっしゃったが　ちっとも恐ろしくないや。
だって僕の手を見てもどうもしなかったもの」

と思いました。
けれど子狐は いったい人間なんてどんなものか見たい
と思いました。
ある窓の下を通りかかると、人間の声がしていました。
何というやさしい、何という美しい、何と言う
おっとりした声なんでしょう。

「ねむれ　ねむれ
　母の胸に、
　ねむれ　ねむれ
　母の手に――」

子狐はその歌声は、きっと人間のお母さんの声に
ちがいないと思いました。
だって、子狐が眠る時にも、やっぱり母さん狐は、
あんなやさしい声で ゆすぶってくれるからです。

Learn English with Stories

Scarlet Darkness- Chapter 6

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the age-old debate: Does stress really help you learn better, or is it just a fast track to burnout? The answer might just change the way you approach your language journey for good. 

💃🏻111 Tips for Learning a Language 

Tip 38 - Some Say a Little Stress is Good for You, But Is It Really True?

Hajimemashite! Welcome to the first episode of "Midori no Heya". In this episode, I share how I came to learn Japanese for the first time. I will never forget my first Indonesian Japanese-teacher, Retno-sensei. When I returned from Japan, I looked for her, but I couldn't find her. The Japanese Language Course where I met her couldn't (or didn't want to?) give her contact.

How could a teacher, teaching at simply an evening course, turn the student's next course of life? She was paid just to teach a language. But the impact she made was beyond.
