i just watched channel 8 news coverage on the china earthquake
although it was short, it touched my heart

it has been 156 hours or so since the earthquake occurred and the rescue team did not give up at all,even though 80 hours was the probable limit to all survivors in the rubble

but guess what, the rescue team found another 63 people
these 63 people were left helpless without food,without water, for more than 4 days.
one of them is a 95 year old woman
and one of them is a 5 year old child. what's even greater is that one of the workers who rescued that child is the father,and the news showed how elated the father was.

there was another case, where the boyfriend stayed beside her for 2 days and 2 nights after she was rescued, and the boyfriend was seen half naked because he took off his shirt to cover her. while the girl laid down with bandage over her eyes, the boyfriend just asked her, whether she would prefer a western style wedding or a chinese one.
i think thats the sweetest thing one would want to receive.

screw media propaganda now. what i saw in the news was real.
those good things that i saw in the news, did not tell me how light-hearted the situation in China has become. it just tells me how precious it is for a small good thing to happen in this disastrous and saddening situation, that even if there's only a tinge of joy found, its a rejoiceful occasion for them.

and more earthquakes happened in China.

i think all these are worth pondering emotionally.
