My Bowels Are Impacted
had not wanted to touch this issue because it was, was and is very painful see everything that caused the earthquake. I never thought something like this happen. No one obviously. They were terrible days of uncertainty, tears, anger ... everything. This has been declining but still there is that feeling. From February 27 that I never feel safe again. I feel like everything is moving, I have trouble sleeping, I'm re sensitive and irritable (as all). I was lucky to have electricity as three days after the earthquake and turn on the TV and face that reality was a horrible shock. Not stop mourn all the time and really thankful because I feel lucky, the damage to my house are nothing compared with others. This one really realizes that the material is not so important ... but the helplessness of losing everything, people, friends even, who lost their home. They have nothing left. It's terrifying.
know that many cities were destroyed and razed by the force of the earthquake, earthquake and tsunami. But I came so close, Concepción, my favorite city, where he spent most of the time in the last 4 years see how it is destroyed ... that the center is in chaos, looting, houses, history, everything is dust. Any future is uncertain. It is distressing to walk the streets of Concepcion. Yesterday I went for the first time after the earthquake. It has been two weeks almost, and the anguish continues. It's not the same as before and may never again be. There are things that "broke" and never will exist. People are sad, it shows in their faces. Everyone stumbles all the time because everything is illegal on the pavement, the streets, the danger of landslide. I do not know. High River building, which collapsed completely was right in front of my college, so every day passing by. Saw when they were newly built, when he delivered recently. And now see on the ground, you make all the hairs bristle. It's like an apocalyptic film that never expected to see.
(* Concepción photos were taken by me one day ago)
I made this video, I know not what happened and which was held in honor of the victims of September 11 in the U.S., but the song is ideal for this. It is sad and beautiful at the same time. I put pictures of the press I found the first day I had electricity.
