【テーマ: Spring】 Winter and Spring 冬vs春

     Have you ever read this poem? This is one of the Aesop’s Fables. Here is the brief plot I translated.

     Winter scoffed at Spring saying,
     “As soon as Spring appears, people are getting too excited. Some of them go for a walk and pick lilies and make garlands of roses. Others go abroad to meet someone that they never met. No longer nobody cares about weather.”
     “On the other hand, ...” Winter continued arrogantly,
     “I am like the magnificent king. As soon as I appear, nobody looks up the sky. They look down and tremble. I can make people stay in their house all day.”
     Then, Spring said,
     “You are right. That is why people become glad when you are gone. I can make people happy by only by my name. Therefore everyone misses me when I am gone, and is pleased when I come back.”
     
     What did you think when you read this plot? I guess that most people came up with Corona virus. Winter represents Corona virus and Spring represents our daily lives. The season is already spring, but winter still stay with us. Let’s wait for Spring coming entirely and never yield to Winter.
