Indescribable Shock|言語表達不出的震撼|言语表达不出的震撼

At this time, the sky is still dark, the sun is not yet ready to light up and the surrounding air appears icy cold. Walking out of the hotel to step into the car, I felt very cautious. My staff accompanying me also didn't say much. The atmosphere was like a thick layer of fog over us, everyone had a heavy heart starting on this trip...

I believe this is a very rare opportunity to be able to personally go to the epicenter of Wenchuan (Sichuan), less than a straight line distance of 10 kilometres, to visit the town Wolong; after a bumpy ride, the convoy finally arrived at the entrance to the disaster area. What I saw before me, really left me dumbstruck. We travelled along a narrow road, the hills on both sides had completely collapsed, the roads were destroyed, and from time to time rubble would slide down from the top of the hill. I felt like I was in a quarry, with sand and dust billowing along the road, and hazy. At that time I couldn't distinguish whether it was the tears in my eyes that blurred my vision, or the sand and dust that made me unable to see the road in front! After setting foot on this place that was completely destroyed, I could not help but feel heavy hearted. The shock brought from the scene in front of me really cannot be described with any words or language...

In this place, I could not feel any ray of vitality at all, left before me were dead trees and countless collapsed tilted houses...I imagined in the past this land was so beautiful, with beautifual water and mountains everywhere, the slopes were all green with a lush jungle. Together with the green bamboo, small rivers and streams etc., the whole village work hard for this life of cultivation. Everyday begin work at sunrise and rest at sunset...unfortunately now it is all in the past, it is buried in the layer of gravel under our feet. Anything can vanish without a trace in a flash!

After this event, I think everyone should have woken up! Reconstructing the affected areas is indeed a difficult and lengthy job, but as long as we have heart and effort to help them, rebuilding schools or communities is not difficult. As long as we persist, one day it can be completed. But after how many years will the damage sustained by nature return to the way it looked before? Can the scenery in the past be reproduced? I think everyone should learn to cherish all that one has now, especially nature. We should take good care of this earth otherwise when you regret after everything is lost, then it will already be too late!

At the end of this visit, as we left, behind a bend we bypassed, we suddenly saw a small piece of greenery. Beside was a partial bamboo grove regrowing, I was even more surprised to see a pair of birds flying over the broken valley. Finally, we saw the villagers had already started to continue their farming life, everyone living in temporary houses were tolerantly continuing to live. There was a deep pulse floating in my heart, in such a poor environment these victims still have courage, strength and perseverance to live on. Unwilling to give up their life because they believe one day they will rebuild and rebound!

There is still over two months before the first anniversary of the 512 earthquake. I still remember very clearly everyone's concern about the disaster at the time! I am very grateful to the unit that organised this visit, and wanted me to promote to the outside world afterwards. We have not forgotten this event, but the enthusiasm to help the victims must continue! I hope after reading this article, you can feel this deep experience of mine.

At the time of the earthquake this boulder, rolled down from the height of the hillside, completely blocking the road in front.

The boulder is approximately the height of 4 people, can everyone imagine how powerful the earthquake was? It could shake such an enormous stone.

Standing in the broken sand gravel, can you imagine this was once our cherished home?

The strong bridge has also been broken by the earthquake.

This building on the hillside has been destroyed by the fallen rocks from the earthquake.

The water main has also been broken by the earthquake, causing a massive rush of water sources from the homes of the civilians.

These photos all show the real situation at the time, can everyone imagine this was once your home, then suddenly only a door is left? When I saw this scene at that time, it really deeply shocked my heart. I felt the sad loss of the victims' homes.

This used to be the home of the pandas, but because of the earthquake the government has moved most of the pandas out of here.

這時 ,天空還是一片漆黑 ,太陽還沒準備要亮起來 ,周遭的空氣更顯得冰冰涼涼的 ,走出飯店踏上車的我 ,當時的心情是戰戰兢兢的 ,同行的工作人員也沒有多說什麼話 ,氣氛好像被一層濃霧籠罩著似的 ,大家帶著沉重的心情展開這一天的探訪旅程 ... prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /

 

我相信這是一個很難得的機會,這次能親自到達四川汶川震央直線距離不到 prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /10公里的臥龍鎮作探訪;在經過顛簸的路途後,車隊好不容易到達災區的入口,我眼前所看到的,真是讓我看得目定口呆,我們的車隊走在狹窄的道路上,兩旁的山坡完全傾塌,道路盡毀,碎石還不時在山坡上滑落,我感覺到自己仿佛身處在一片石礦場當中,沿路沙塵滾滾,煙霧彌漫,那時的我已經分不清是眼中的淚水模糊了我的視線,還是沙塵讓我看不清前方的路了!踏足這被徹底毀滅的地方後心情完全無法自拔地變得沉重,眼前的景象所帶來的震撼,絕對不能用任何文字及言語來形容 ...

 

身處這個地方,我完全感覺不到一絲生命力,眼前只剩下一整片枯死的樹林和無數倒塌傾斜的房子 ...我在想像以往這片土地是多麼的風光明媚,到處都是美麗的山光水色,山坡上全是綠油油及茂盛的叢林,加上青翠的竹林,小溪流澗等,而村落裏大家都勤力地過著耕種的生活,每天日出而作,日入而息 ...很可惜如今這一切都已成過去,都被我們腳下的碎石層埋下了,原來什麼東西都可以在一瞬間消失得無影無蹤!

 

發生此事之後,我想大家應好好地醒覺起來!重建災區的確實是一項艱巨及漫長的工作,不過只要我們能用心用力去協助他們,要重建學校或社區絕對不是困難的事,只要堅持下去總有一天能完成。不過大自然所遭受的損害,要多少年後才能恢復當時的面貌呢?以往的景色還能重現嗎?我想大家應該學懂珍惜目前所擁有的一切,尤其是大自然的景象,要好好愛惜我們的這個地球,要不然當一切失去後才後悔,那時已經為時已晚了!

 

完結探訪後,車隊離開時我們繞過一條彎道後面,忽然看到有一小片綠油油的田園,在旁邊也重現部分竹林,我更赫然看到一對小鳥飛過殘破的山谷之中,最後更看到村民已經重新投入他們的生活繼續耕種了,大家在臨時房屋中堅忍地生活下去,心中浮起很深的悸動,災民在這麼惡劣的環境下還能勇敢堅強地,有毅力地生活下去,對自己的人生不捨不棄,因為他們都相信總有一天能重整下來,重新振作!

 

還有兩個多月的時間就是 512大地震的一周年,大家當時對災情的關切我還記得非常清楚呢!我很感謝有關單位安排我這次親身探訪,希望透過我這次探訪後向外界宣揚,我們並沒有把這事忘記,而且幫助災民的熱情更會一直要持續下去!希望看過這篇文章的您們,可以感受到我這次深切的體會。

這塊巨石是當時地震發生時, 從高處的山坡滾下來, 把前面的去路完全擋住.

巨石有約4個人的高度, 大家可以想像當時的地震威力有多大? 可以把這麼巨大的石頭震開.

身處於碎沙碎石之中, 可以想像這裡就是大家曾經愛惜的家園嗎?

堅固的橋樑也被地震震斷.

在山坡旁的建築物更被山上震下來的石頭打碎.

水管也因為地震而折斷, 令大量水源從平民的家中湧出來.

照片都是當時真實的情況, 大家可以想像曾經是你的家園土地, 一下子只餘下一隻門嗎?  當時我看見這個情景, 真的深深的震撼我心. 令我感受到災民痛失家園的難過感覺.

這裡曾經是熊貓的家園, 因為地震的原故, 政府把大部份的熊貓都搬離這裡.

 

 

,天空还是一片漆黑 ,太阳还没准备要亮起来 ,周遭的空气更显得冰冰凉凉的 ,走出饭店踏上车的我 ,当时的心情是战战兢兢的 ,同行的工作人员也没有多说什麽话 ,气氛好像被一层浓雾笼罩着似的 ,大家带着沉重的心情展开这一天的探访旅程 ...   我相信这是一个很难得的机会,这次能亲自到达四川汶川震央直线距离不到 10公里的卧龙镇作探访;在经过颠簸的路途后,车队好不容易到达灾区的入口,我眼前所看到的,真是让我看得目定口呆,我们的车队走在狭窄的道路上,两旁的山坡完全倾塌,道路尽毁,碎石还不时在山坡上滑落,我感觉到自己彷佛身处在一片石矿场当中,沿路沙尘滚滚,烟雾弥漫,那时的我已经分不清是眼中的泪水模煳了我的视线,还是沙尘让我看不清前方的路了!踏足这被彻底毁灭的地方后心情完全无法自拔地变得沉重,眼前的景象所带来的震撼,绝对不能用任何文字及言语来形容 ...   身处这个地方,我完全感觉不到一丝生命力,眼前只剩下一整片枯死的树林和无数倒塌倾斜的房子 ...我在想像以往这片土地是多麽的风光明媚,到处都是美丽的山光水色,山坡上全是绿油油及茂盛的丛林,加上青翠的竹林,小溪流涧等,而村落里大家都勤力地过着耕种的生活,每天日出而作,日入而息 ...很可惜如今这一切都已成过去,都被我们脚下的碎石层埋下了,原来什麽东西都可以在一瞬间消失得无影无踪!   发生此事之后,我想大家应好好地醒觉起来!重建灾区的确实是一项艰巨及漫长的工作,不过只要我们能用心用力去协助他们,要重建学校或社区绝对不是困难的事,只要坚持下去总有一天能完成。不过大自然所遭受的损害,要多少年后才能恢复当时的面貌呢?以往的景色还能重现吗?我想大家应该学懂珍惜目前所拥有的一切,尤其是大自然的景象,要好好爱惜我们的这个地球,要不然当一切失去后才后悔,那时已经为时已晚了!   完结探访后,车队离开时我们绕过一条弯道后面,忽然看到有一小片绿油油的田园,在旁边也重现部分竹林,我更赫然看到一对小鸟飞过残破的山谷之中,最后更看到村民已经重新投入他们的生活继续耕种了,大家在临时房屋中坚忍地生活下去,心中浮起很深的悸动,灾民在这麽恶劣的环境下还能勇敢坚强地,有毅力地生活下去,对自己的人生不捨不弃,因为他们都相信总有一天能重整下来,重新振作!   还有两个多月的时间就是 512大地震的一周年,大家当时对灾情的关切我还记得非常清楚呢!我很感谢有关单位安排我这次亲身探访,希望透过我这次探访后向外界宣扬,我们并没有把这事忘记,而且帮助灾民的热情更会一直要持续下去!希望看过这篇文章的您们,可以感受到我这次深切的体会。 这块巨石是当时地震发生时, 从高处的山坡滚下来, 把前面的去路完全挡住.

Oh my GOD!! These pictures are pretty shocking Karen... Not sure if they showed these kinds of things on TV in China... But here in the US... it is the first I have seen. And for it to still look this way now, is equally shocking. Thank you for sharing the pictures. Please share more. I will say a prayer for the people still affected by this devastation.
