12 years ago.

The Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake striked aroound Kobe city.
I watched smoking city on TV.
I was shocked when I had known that was destroyed Kobe city by the earthquake.

I have been living in Gunma.
I have experienced an earthquake of the 5th degree
on the seismic scale 3 years ago.
But The Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake was stronger than that.

The Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake took the lives of a lot of
people.
The earthquake was got a severe heavy blow.

"Life"
Please value your life.
Please value her or his life.
Please value all life!
