A Never-Ending Story That Seems Like a Good Story, But Isn't Quite

Thanks to her, I made it this far again today. I am always grateful.

"It's a misunderstanding."

However, she insists on that again today.

Admittedly, I do not understand her. I do not understand what lies behind her words and actions.

What on earth is she thinking, saying it's a misunderstanding again today without ever getting emotional? Is she perhaps thinking that she is merely doing the job she was assigned? I am grateful for her good intentions, though.

I am as curious about this as I am about the "What tree is this, what tree is this, the tree I'm curious about" (*). First, I tried asking a colleague.

(*) From the Hitachi Group commercial song, Hitachi Tree. Young people might not have heard it.

"Hey, she always says it's a misunderstanding, do you know anything about that?"

"Oh, you mean Ms. Nakamura? If it's her, she would say that, wouldn't she."

Unbelievable, my colleague seems to know. The people around us also have faces that suggest they have figured it out. It's frustrating. I decided to look into her roots.

Well, it is a surprise. Although it was born in 1947, the story apparently goes back as far as 236 BC, to ancient Rome.

And believe it or not, it involves Archimedes. That genius is involved. Incidentally, back then, goods were transported by human power.

I will leave the subsequent historical changes to another page. I will place the link at the end of this article.

And it seems she was born in Toyama. A voice quality with a natural and beautiful resonance, a deep bass, a soft and elegant mid-range, and a beautiful high-range. I will also place a link to her profile at the end.

My understanding of the background has deepened. However, I still cannot grasp her heart at all.

I want to know, but at the same time, I realized that there is no point in prying. Anything more would be boorish.

That's right, no matter what she thinks, the fact that I am grateful remains unchanged. I should just continue to express my gratitude.

Thanks to her, I reached the fifth floor again today. She says, "It's a misunderstanding." Even so, I say, thank you as always. I think I'll be able to enjoy my coffee in a good mood this morning, too.
