おくりびと

忘れられない。。。
最後に微笑んでくれた
あの時の顔を



MunちゃんはCDをくれました。
そして、[おくりびとはみてください]と言って。
それによて、昨日はみました。ただ一人。
絶対におもしろい。
ほんとにやさしいも悲しいです。


Mun gave me the OST of Departures.
The music was composed by none other than Joe Hisaishi.
He said he knew when he heard those pieces, that I would love them too.
So he got a friend to get me a copy from overseas and told me to watch the movie.
And so I did. Yesterday. Alone.
Why not alone?
We, like all those who had gone before us, must embrace our departure alone.
The movie was beautiful. I had never known that there could be such aesthetic in the art of a mortician.
Death and what lies beyond was made gentle and peaceful in every scene.
Now, departures will never be the same again to me.
