It’s already been more than a month since the earthquake occurred in Nepal. Although it’s already been a month, the earthquake occurrence can still be felt, but not huge ones. Most of the people who went to their villages from Kathmandu Valley after the 1st day earthquake have come back to Kathmandu. Fearfully but slowly, people have started to live their lives like it was before the earthquake. But many people those who lost their family members and houses still seem to be in fear and pain. Lots of people are living in tents and those whose houses aren’t damaged have started living inside their own houses. Some people are trying to return to their normal lives and are trying to be strong but some of them are not ready to move on yet because they are scared. Even I am also scared though I act like I’m not scared, because just acting like being strong helps to be stronger. I have started to feel that now the earthquakes are a part of human life. Many people say that quakes have still been occurring but it’s been 4-5 days and I haven’t felt the quake. I think instead of getting scared, we should learn to be stronger and move on because many of us are lucky; at least we survived when many other people lost their lives. So we should be thankful for being able to survive and move on so that we can help the other people in need as well as having lots of work to do in life. We should also teach other people who are still in fear about ways to be strong and we should inspire them and also encourage them. No one knows when the earthquake will occur again, so we should not believe what the umors say and ignore them. Through this at least we can do something good for the people who have lost their lives for no reason.
