東日本大震災
從沒想像過日本這個先進國家，一場天災可以奪去成千上萬的生命，每次看見的總是歌頌日本人在災後如何有秩序、重建工作如何快速完成，但若然深入一點災區，情況其實跟傳媒說的完全是相反。東日本大地震至今8年，還有數以萬計的災民過著避難的生活、區內仍然百廢待興。日本政府的粉飾工作做得出色，但失去家園、親人的傷痛要何時才能治癒？災後8年，當地孤獨死的人數激增四成，東北人至今仍然隱隱作痛。
It had never crossed my mind that a single natural disaster could take away the lives of tens of thousands of people in a developed country like Japan. Complimentary stories abounded of Japanese people’s orderly behavior in the wake of the disaster as well as speedy reconstruction efforts. However, if one ventured deeper into the affected areas, the actual circumstances were poles apart from what had been presented by media outlets. Even though eight years have passed following the earthquake, tens of thousands of victims still live as evacuees in the region, where a lot has yet to be done. Despite the Japanese government’s outstanding efforts in embellishment, how long will it take to completely cure the pain of those who have lost their homes and relatives? The eight years following the disaster have witnessed the number of people dying of solitude increasing significantly by 40 percent. Residents of the Tohoku region in Japan can still feel a dull pain from their wounds.

looking at the photos and reading articles. Each word and sentence conjures up images. An enthusiast of Japanese culture, I would like to leave a record of my own memories of the Heisei Era before the new one begins.
