Again: We are in the same boat... no, on the same Earth.

カテゴリ： 10-line essays

And one month after a massive earthquake in Taiwan on Feb. 6 .

In the first summer after 3.11 earthquake, I went to Taiwan for the first time with Mother twice on tour.
Because Mother is a high-school teacher, and in that autumn, she had to supervise students at a school trip to Taiwan.
Mother wanted to visit when she could enjoy a non-working trip, and besides, back then, it was still in the early days after she had leg surgery,
And I cannot use Chinese, but instead, understand English enough to manage during the short trip to abroad.
At our second visit, we visited a famous temple.
It's already almost five years and it might be too late, but I'm placing the prayer I offered at this temple:
Gratitude for a lot of aid from this island, and blessings of God in this temple and island for this wonderful island and its people.

As I look around in our country , I feel like wondering what and whom the undergoing reconstruction is for -which is maybe next time.
But in the meantime, since we're faced with the same difficulty , we could help each other; even when we are fully occupied with problem of our own, we might be able to exchange information and wisdom
-At least , we are not slack enough to hung up on people who wish ill to others and depress to the same low level.

Usually, I avoid using proper nouns on "10-line essays", but today is an exception.
