I felt such strong vertical shakes that I almost bit my tongue in the aftershock on April 7. My house was destroyed by the shaking. However, I think that I am happier than those who were deprived of everything by the tsunami, because although my property was destroyed it was not swept away. Although I was scared by the series of strong aftershocks, now I’m sure that we will be able to recover from the disaster someday. I learned this from my experiences in the aftermath of the 3/11 earthquake.
