家族や仕事のことを話すうちに、日々の生活の中で不満や葛藤を感じているのは自分だけではないことを知り、少し安心ました。こんな話をするようになるなんて、子どもの頃には想像していなかったけれど、やはり友達はいいものです。

Special Breakfast
One of my girlfriends from my elementary and junior-high school days took a day off and came to see me in Kobe. Our little reunion started with breakfast, proceeded through the Ijinkan-gai district and Motomachi Shopping Arcade and finished with a piece of cake shared between the two of us.
I felt a bit relieved to know that I was not the only one who was feeling frustration or turmoil in our daily living from our conversation over families and jobs. It is really nice to have good friends although I did not expect us to talk like this when we were children.
*Picture: breakfast at Kobe Kitano Hotel which is rated as “the world’s best.” We could tell how carefully the meal was prepared from the colorful glasses of vegetable-fruit juice and different kinds of rolls and breads. It costs 5,670 yen per person when not staying at the hotel.
