ストレスフリーで見れるドラマ。 「古い本を再び開く 私の好きな本で 何度読み返しても下線を引いてしまう本 毎日新たな発見をさせてくれる本 私の一番古い本(「チャ・ウノ」っていう本) . つらい時も楽しい時もいつも気軽に読んでた 内容を暗記できるほど読んだ でも最近はその本が少し変なの なぜこんなところにー 私は下線を引いたのかなって思うの 読み慣れた本なのにー このところ新しい文章も見える いつも読み飛ばしてたのね 初めて読む本みたい」 「読み手のダニさんが変わったせいかも いい本って時を経て読み返すと印象が変わるでしょ? 大人になるから 本は変わってないと思う ダニさんが変わったんだ その本を読むダニさんの心が」 「つらい時お前も本の文章の中に隠れたように そして私が晩年にお前という本に出会い 温かく癒してもらったように 誰かの本になれるような人生を送れ 本のように温かく包んでくれる人が お前にも現れることを」
