東日本大震災によせて【シリーズ10-line】:ピンクのろうそく



Today, let me place my congratulatory address for Yuzuru Hanyu who won the gold medal .
He is from Sendai, one of the cities in stricken prefectures.
The ice rink he was practicing at was destroyed by the earthquake, and he was about to disheartened at one time.
But adverse circumstances made him grow up as a skater.
And reportedly, there is a shrine similar to his name in Kobe, the city also damaged badly by earthquake disaster once.
He visited there and dedicated a votive picture tablet writing that he wishes to be the world's top and a ray of hope for Touhoku .

In the future, I hope he can say with proud that the failure this time have made him grow up more.

This time, I realized that.
Mao Asada is also the one; she couldn't perform to her satisfaction at Short Program, but the next day, she showed a perfect performance at Free Program and moved up ten notches to get a place.
She has shown perseverance to bounce back from despair and the real athlete spirit .
I think it's not only me who think that she has given the courage for people at the stricken area to recover from tragedy, whether Asada is aware of it aside.
So, even though she couldn't win a medal as a result, I'd like to place my congratulatory address for her, too, instead of back-patting.
If we can learn from athletes like them who have demonstrated by their struggles, we could also learn from survivors at the spot who are the ones working hardest for reconstruction from earthquake disaster, couldn't we?
-Even though what they are facing is a terrible misfortune and reconstruction could be something they were obliged to do.
Superfluously :
People with dreams or something they are working on hard don't listen to unnecessary noise nor put out unnecessary noise that thwart others.

-Needless to say about people who have no way else to enjoy Olympic but abusing athletes in other countries and athletes ended up in no results ...
If I keep on writing furthermore, I might get sidetracked, so that's about it for today.

I usually avoid using proper nouns and pronouns identifying gender on "10-line essays".
But today is an exception.
