"Lonely Boat Red Dust"

I watched "Mani in Memories" by Ghibli. Quite possibly my favorite cartoon of the year.


A man's heart is wide and long;
a woman's heart is deep and long... What
a man thinks is: Thousands of generations, to rule the rivers and lakes;
what a woman thinks is: This sentence, I have waited for several lifetimes, several eons...


For example: rowing together, the man is looking at what is on the water, and the woman is probably thinking about what is below the water.

What is above the water can be seen with the eyes; what
is below the water cannot be seen with the eyes, so use your heart.

I like the vastness that I can see with my eyes,
and the mystery that I can only realize with my heart.

Mine, alone in a
boat to cross the world...
