子供がお菓子を持ってレジに並んでいたけれど、順番が近くなり、レジを見て考え込み、レジ横にあった募金箱にお金を入れて、お菓子を棚に戻して出て行きました。店員さんがその子供の背中に向けてかけた「ありがとうございます」という声が、震えてました。

Translation: A child was waiting in the line at the store, but as he got close to the checkout, he thought for a little, he puts his money in the donation box set by the cashier, and took the snack back to the shelf. " Thank you," the cashier's voice was trembling.






”暗すぎて今までに見たことないくらい星が綺麗だよ。
仙台のみんな、上を向くんだ。”

@現地での会話 @ryoji96

Translation:  It is so dark here that stars shine and appear brighter than ever before. To the people in Sendai, look up!




「世界唯一の核被爆国。大戦にも負けた。毎年台風がくる。地震だってくる。津波もくる。・・・小さい島国だけど、それでも立ち上がってきたのが日本なんじゃないの。頑張れ超頑張れ。」ちなみに僕はいま泣いてる。

@copedy

Translation:  The only victim nation of the atomic bomb, who lost in the big war. Typhoons hit every year. Earthquakes and Tsunami frequently occur. It is a small island, but still managed to come right back up after each crisis. Stay strong.
