「そこらの石」に夢中。
自分は小説に関して何度も読むということはないのだけれど、以前ブログでも紹介したこちらの小説
Audible(朗読)との共同企画、書き下ろし長篇小説「墨のゆらめき」がとっても面白く何度も聴いている。
この中にも少しでてくるのだけれど「石」
それもダイヤとかサファイヤとか高級の鉱物じゃなく、普通に河原や山に落ちている石。この石に心からハマれたら最高に幸せな人生が送れるのかもしれない。
残念ながら、お金で手に入れられるものは、それまでどんなに欲しくても、一度手に入れたものは、手に入れた途端、高揚感は下がっていく。もうこれ以上にないと思っても、その次、その次と、欲しいものがどんどんでてくる。お金を稼いでも、生活レベルをあげてしまうと、いつまでもキリがない。
石ではなくても、そこらへんに普通に落ちてはいるのだけれど、同じものが二つとないもの。そのようなものに心からハマれたら、人生もしかすると、最高なのかもしれない。

Obsessed with ‘ rocks ‘. The best life?
Useally I’m not to read novels more than once, but ‘Sumi no Yuremeki’, which I’ve blogged about before, I’ve listened to several times.
I’ve listened to it many times because it’s a very interesting novel, ‘Sumi no Yuremeki’, which was written in collaboration with Audible.
In this novel there are a few references to ‘stones’.
Not diamonds, sapphires or other precious minerals, but ordinary stones found on riverbanks and mountainsides. If you could fall in love with these stones, you might be able to live a supremely happy life.
Unfortunately, once you have something, no matter how much you wanted it before, the joy of getting it will fade as soon as you have it. Even when you think you have enough, you will want more, and more, and more, and more. Even if you make money, if you raise your standard of living, there is no end to it.
There are things that are not stones, but are found everywhere, but no two are the same. If you can fall in love with such things from the bottom of your heart, life can be the best.
