Thank you very much for all the support you gave
me the other day when I visited Sendai.
Now that I have breathed the air of the
evacuation centre, met the women and children, and seen Ishinomaki and Onagawa
with my own eyes, even now back in Fukuoka, these scenes and so many thoughts
keep coming back to me … This has changed my everyday life fundamentally, I
feel.
Now, I watch the daily news and even the weather
report of the Tohoku region with different eyes.
When I witnessed how everybody at Miyagi Jonet
supported the affected people with so much warmth and sincerity, giving
everything, and when I spoke to the people at the evacuation centre and
somebody told me very determinedly: "It will not end like this" - I
felt like I was the one who received new energy through all this.
Right now, there is probably still a spiral of
various problems, small and big complications, and worries about the future in
the whole region.
I will try to do what I can from Fukuoka, by
following what is going on, telling my friends about it, and trying to do
something for the recovery.
From the bottom of my heart I pray for your
health and the quick recovery of the affected region.
Masayo
