Earthquake

Tuesday, 15 March 2011

I still kind of not able to believe the fact that something unbelievable happened in Japan.

I experienced the similar massive earthquake when I was a kid in my hometown.
6000 people were killed at that time.
My friend lost some friends because of that earthquake, but I could not understand how much painful the experient was for her and still cannot understand.
But she experienced such a terrible thing when she was just 7 years old.
To be honest, I was not so scared of the earthquake happened in my hometown, maybe I was too small, The town shown on the television was filled with fire, but I felt like it was happened somewhere faraway from my town. But it actually happened in the same prefecture.

Now, it is too scary for me to face the fact.
But, I still feel like "is it really Japan?" when I am watching news.
It is like a war. I have heard unclear also exploded...it is seriously a war.
I never visited Tohoku area (if I remember well), but they must have been beautiful areas which Japan had to remain beautiful forever, but those towns were being destroyed...

I should not have been in the UK safe when my country is being suffered from such a disaster. Such a boring useless person like me should not have been safe here.
I feel so guilty although many people from overseas were also affected in Japan.
I can't imagine how much their parents and friends are worried...

I read news saying two bodies found in a totally broken house.
One of them was a grandmother and the other one was a 3 year grandson.
The grandmother was holding her dear grandson so tight in her arms...
His mother was alive and she said it was at least happy that those two were found together...
I could not stop tearing when I read this news.
Why do such young kids had to die with brilliant future...

On the other hand, I found happy news.
In the dark, without electricity and water...
Some babies were born...Their mothers must have been scared, but they gave birth in the difficult situation...Mothers are strong, and their babies must be strong, too....Congratulations!!!
It is only thing that is different from the war...
During the war, I have heard many new born babies were killed because they were just noisy and they need to be feed.
But now, those babies are really blessed and they made people around them happy and encouraged.

I just want people in Japan to have strength...I know they already have, though..
I have to be strong here, too.
It is just rubbish things I am worried now comparing with people in Japan!!

I believe Japan!!
