まあ、楽しそうな私！でも、本当は、こんなんじゃないです。もっと静（しず）かな誕生日（たんじょうび）でした。いつもどおり、レッスンしたり、ご飯作ったり、朝起きてから寝るまで、普通（ふつう）の日でした。だから、聞きやすいんじゃないかな。ときどき、文法がわからないかもしれないけど、まあ気にしないで。何となく聞いてみてください。日記だけど「ます」の形が多いのは、みなさんに、今、私と一緒（いっしょ）に経験（けいけん experience）しているように感じてほしいからなんですよ。

Hablar por los codos

In this episode, we talk about the pleasure we get from hearing stories, and I share with you a beautiful tale about the joy that comes from helping others. Listen now, and then read the (shortened) transcript below to check your understanding.

This story takes place in a hospital, many years ago. And there was a room where there were two men, both seriously ill. One of those men was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour a day to drain the fluids from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend of all his time lying flat on his back. He couldn’t see anything, except the ceiling.

The men talked for hours on end. They spoke about their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, where they’d been on vacation, and the things they’d learned in their lives. And every afternoon, when the man in the bed next to the window, could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the wonderful things he could see outside the window.

The man in the other bed would live for those one-hour periods when his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and the colour of the outside world. The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake, the man had said. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Lovers walked arm in arm amid flowers of every colour of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all of this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene..........
