You can hear the voice recording for the diary.
この時期にトウモロコシが食べられるなんて驚いたけれど、沖縄では今が旬だと知り、迷わず手に入れた。
I was surprised to find fresh corn in season during this time of year, but in Okinawa, it’s apparently a winter delicacy, so I decided to try it immediately.
生産者さんお墨付きの「生」でかじりついてみると、口いっぱいに広がる瑞々しい甘さに思わず笑みがこぼれてしまった。
Following the grower’s recommendation, I took a bite while it was raw, and the burst of sweetness was so incredible that it was hard to believe it hadn’t been cooked.
本来ならまだ冬のこの季節に、こんなに鮮度の高い贅沢を味わえるなんて、本当にありがたいことだと深く実感する。
It is a true privilege to enjoy such fresh, high-quality produce in mid-February, a luxury that adds vibrant color to my daily life.
こうした豊かな食事や新しい体験は、人生に彩りを与えてくれるし、何より自分を突き動かす最高の原動力になる。
These culinary experiences serve as a powerful reminder of why I work so hard—to afford the lifestyle and the flavors that bring me genuine joy.
お金は自分の努力でいくらでも稼げる。これからも一生懸命働いて、こうした素晴らしい食卓を自分の力で守り、楽しんでいける自分でありたい。
As long as I keep pushing myself professionally, I can secure the resources to sustain these moments, and I’m more motivated than ever to keep earning my seat at the table.
To be continued.
