沈む太陽の光を浴び山の稜線がくっきり浮かび上がる車窓の風景。東京から電車一本で繋がる町は大気が澄み目に映る光景が清々しい。来てよかった。
電車から一歩足を踏み出し深呼吸。いつも吸ってるはずの空気がまるで違う。お・い・し・い。
ショッピングモールの中庭に国分寺にあったものを再現した七重の塔が聳え立つ。神々しい。
口にする食べもの、飲みもの全てがいつも以上に美味しく感じられる。
素敵な場所に誘ってくれてありがとう。感謝感謝。

帰りの電車は一人だけの貸切車両。贅沢気分。
1時間ほどの小旅行は瞬く間に終わりを迎える。
多くの人が溢れるホームで散歩中の一羽の鳩が出迎えてくれる。そこまでは夢の世界。非現実の世界。
眼の前に繰り広げられる光景はいつもと同じはずなのに霞んでぼんやりと目に映る。
一本の線で繫がる点と点。同じ空間のはずなのに、広がる景色の余りの違いに驚愕。
気づきを与えてくれてありがとう。感謝感謝。

The scenery from the train window, with the mountain ridges clearly visible in the setting sun. The town, which is connected to Tokyo by a single train line, has a clear atmosphere, and the sight reflected in my eyes was refreshing. I am glad I came.
I step out of the train and take a deep breath. The air I usually breathe feels different. It's so nice.
A seven-story pagoda, a replica of the one in Kokubunji Temple, stands in the courtyard of the shopping mall. It is divine.
Everything I eat and drink tastes even better than usual.
Thank you for inviting me to this wonderful place. Thank you, thank you.

The train on the way back was chartered only for one person. I feel like I'm in the lap of luxury.
The hour-long excursion comes to an end in the blink of an eye.
A strolling pigeon greets me on a platform full of people. It is a dream world up to that point. An unreal world.
The scene unfolding in front of my eyes should be the same as usual, but it appears hazy and blurred.
The dots are connected by a single line. The same space is supposed to be the same, but I was surprised by the difference of the scenery.
Thank you for making me aware of this. Thank you, thank you.
