People in Sichuan Province are using the holiday break to mourn the quake victims. |
Sichuan resident, said, “I feel sorry for those who died. And I feel fortunate for those still alive. Life is very fragile, but it’s also very strong.”
The County seat will be turned into a museum park to commemorate the victims. And a new Beichuan will rise in a county nearby.
Eight months ago, people were weeping in front of the rubble. And today they’re here to send their best wishes to the victims. The new year is usually a time for celebrating the future, but here in Beichuan, it has also become a time of remembrance. Mourning the dead is their special way to cherish life.
