EL CÁRCAMO DEL BOSQUE DE CHAPULTEPEC.

In this episode, we talk about the pleasure we get from hearing stories, and I share with you a beautiful tale about the joy that comes from helping others. Listen now, and then read the (shortened) transcript below to check your understanding.

This story takes place in a hospital, many years ago. And there was a room where there were two men, both seriously ill. One of those men was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour a day to drain the fluids from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend of all his time lying flat on his back. He couldn’t see anything, except the ceiling.

The men talked for hours on end. They spoke about their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, where they’d been on vacation, and the things they’d learned in their lives. And every afternoon, when the man in the bed next to the window, could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the wonderful things he could see outside the window.

The man in the other bed would live for those one-hour periods when his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and the colour of the outside world. The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake, the man had said. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Lovers walked arm in arm amid flowers of every colour of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all of this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene..........

こんにちは。
理想の未来へ向かうための日本語時間のMAMIKOです。

今日は、夢を叶えるために何をしたらいいかについてお話します。
みなさんは、将来どんな生活をしたいですか？
お金持ちになりたいですか？
きれいな家に住みたいですか？
海外旅行に行きたいですか？
人によって、いろいろな夢がありますね。

では、その夢のために、毎日どれくらい時間を使っていますか？
夢のために使う時間は、多いほうがいいです。

たとえば、憧れの生活をしている人の動画を見る。
好きな音楽を聞く。
ディフューザーを使って、いい香りをかぐ。
こういうふうに、五感（目・耳・鼻・口・体）を使うことがおすすめです。

私は毎朝ヨガをしています。
ヨガをすると、気持ちが前向きになります。
この行動もただの習慣と考えずに、理想の未来へ近づくための時間、自分を満たしている時間と考えています。
そして、ディフューザーを使って、いい香りをかぎながらヨガをすると、とても幸せな時間になります。

夢をかなえるために、もう一つ大事なことがあります。
それは「行動する」ことです。
行動しなければ、結果はありません。
行動を続けるから、結果が出ます。

人はすぐに成果が出る方法を探します。
でも、成功している人は、めんどうでもやります。
めんどうな気持ちを無視して、行動します。

そうすれば、あなたも夢に近づきます。
日本語を勉強しながら、理想の未来をかなえましょう！
