My Superhuman Hearing

Tokyo is cold like being frozen hard.
4:05 a.m. At the time when all is fast asleep, I listen carefully to world music.
A few cats are keeping off this cold over the wall while huddling close together each other.
　
My husband told that there were few people who heard the footsteps that a cat walked the way. But I have lived till today while listening to cats walk the outside of the garden day and night.

My superhuman hearing is the born ability.
I think that I must cherish this talent.
　

都内は凍り付くような寒さ。4:05am、もう全てが寝静まる時間に、私は世界の音楽に耳を澄ます。
塀の向こうに数匹の猫が身を寄せ合って、この寒さを凌いでいる。

猫が道を歩く足音を聴いた人は少ないと、夫が話していたけれど、私は日夜猫が庭の外を歩く音を聴いて生きて来た。
　
人間離れした聴力は、生まれついた才能。この才能を大切にしなければ…。
