Eleven days have passed since the massive nature calamity. And the rescue activities are still going on. We are getting new progress with rescuing survivors. It is said that passing time, cold and rain decrease the probability of surviving from the first tsunami and earthquake, but all people in Japan hope more progress.
Many people in the most affected area stay in shelters without sufficient water, food and supply. Some started to move to other cities, saying that leaving their hometown is a heartbreaking for them. Many people believe and hope the survival of their missing family members, friends and neighbors. Some people found bodies of their loved ones, but facing the sad fact that they cannot bury loved ones in appropriate manner for now...
Each has different experiences from the disaster; however, I think, all people are trying to find good news facing the crushing sorrow.
Under such circumstance, people who got relatively small physical damage from the earthquake and tsunami also undergo stress. Many people desire to do something and realize that there is only small things they can do... People see too many tragic scenes through media. Medial professionals warn people to cope with stress before it cause a serious mental problem.
Also, it is reported that some people feel sick due to the continuous aftershocks. It is like a seasick; a person feel the land is shaking when it does not, because his/her body has felt moves of the land for a long time or with much frequency.
There is, of course, bright side of the situation.
Too many things are going on and I cannot state all here, but I would like to keep sharing my thoughts and information with you all.
