Fortune or Misfortune? 2008 China

2008, a year where most Chinese has anticipated, a year to be deemed as to show the power of China via Olympic Games. While most Chinese are overwhelmed by the event, disasters shattered the heart of all Chinese. From the hazard snow in January, Tibetan issue in March, till the earthquake which struck Si Chuan province on Monday, is 2008 a fortune or a misfortune, still remains unknown.

I should have write this yesterday, but maybe the horrendous images which appeared on the TV shied me away from reminiscing it at the night. The shrieking of people due to the loss of their loved ones embedded in my mind. The grief, the plight, all of that, filmed over me. However, despite all the woe, I saw a dim light in the darkness today on the screen. The rescuers were perky, their spirit was high, giving comfort and conciliation to the victims. I could recall the time where they sang the b'day song to one of the students who trapped under the snab. I still can recall the joy over their face after they had rescue one of those who survive. Positive can still be seen despite the stark life hazard which confront them.

While looking at the news, I start pondering if I'm already a real doc whom is able to save people's life at that time. I looked at the medical team, standing in the front line to save those who in need, I feel meaningful, and moved, deep in my heart. Maybe it sounds absurd, but I do think The Mighty gives me a chance to have a deeper and concrete picture of what a noble doc should do.

Swapping to China, the burgeoning country which gives me a sense of homeland, I do think the ordeals which they have faced are exams which make them grow even stronger than ever. After all this plight, it can be assured that the Chinese will even more unite and forge an unprecedented intimacy. I'm pretty sure my fellows Chinese will pull together to go through the hard time with their innate fortitude. Soldier on, buddies.

I doubt if the continuous events enlighten all the people in the world instead of being only a hit to the people in Republican China; but as for me, it appears to be a novel lessons which inspire me. Maybe I should end up with an unforgettable quote from the China premiere Wen Jia Bao in his visit to the affected area. He said: 只要有一线希望， 我们都会尽百万倍的努力。 ( If there's a sign of hope, we'll endeavour in all means.)
