A lovely word

Hello!

It's a rainy week but I hope you're doing alright. 

Rain can be romantic so.. through this blog, I wanted to convey my feelings of gratitude.

Why? 

That's because thanks to everyone, I feel to have improved my English to a substantial degree. It's so lovely to interact in English in Japan. I mean there are not so many occasions to actually use English here unless there are English-speaking people, so I sincerely thank you. 

What's more, I really like the way in which gratitude is conveyed in Italian. Grazie is the direct translation of thank you, but it has a deeper meaning. 

Grazie is the plural of the word grazia, which derives from the Latin word gratia, meaning lots of things: grace, elegance, favor, friendship, harmony, consideration, gratitude, et cetera. 

Perhaps the direct translation of the "verbal ambiance" is graces?  

It's lovely right? 

I think there is no shortage of grace in life. Even the slightest encounter offers ineffable beauty in life. 

That being said, 

thank you and good night.
