Koohii stories:

1) [DrWarrior12] 15-7-2009(58): To keep this separated from sand (#117 砂): Water erodes away stone a few grains of sand at a time until there is no stone left.

2) [synewave] 15-2-2007(31): Wet sand is simply sand but to see beautiful grains of sand, the water must be few.

3) [Peppi] 22-5-2009(18): Each water wave washes away a few grains of sand.

4) [decals] 8-10-2010(5): This kanji is used in a lot of girl’s names. 理沙 (りさ) 、沙織 (さおり) 、沙百合 (さゆり). Maybe guys can think of this kind of like the classic advice there a lots of fish in water(ocean), lots of girls out there for you. You might think that it's hopeless and there are only a few girls out there, but girls are like grains of sand. Keep looking for the right one!
