here in Berlin
when I posted this "6:46 silence" without a text this morning it was shortly after "praying" or rather remembering and wishing for the dead and the survivors from the earthquake two years ago - it was 14:46 in Japan
Berlin was silent this morning, covert in snow, grey
two years ago the sakura started to bloom in Kamakura, the sea in Hayama was blue and calm, the sunset that evening was beautiful
I remembered the sensation of the shaking earth, the fear in the eyes of people surrounding me, the watches stopped in time
the small electronic store which had generator where we saw the first pictures of this huge wave - and couldn't grasp what we saw
the silence the next day when we arrived back in Tokyo, Shinjuku
the crying woman in the small alley
although being Kamakura that moment where it wasn't that strong - the pure length of it made~
I also remember how I was sitting on top of Victoriapark, in Berlin Kreuzberg, three month later, at night trying to put into words the mixture of frustration, fear, anger, sadness, helplessness which had shaken me and still was about to turn my life upside down
I am back on track now - but I won't forget

silence
14:46

from todays News Zero
I am kind of "happy" (although that's not the right word for such a case) they are reporting about the nuclear power plant and the outcome - Sho being there is always really moving me, he looks incredible tired while sitting in the studio - going to the north during the day and being back at the studio in the evening must be really tough, physically and emotionally
but now critic: I am not blaming Sho, he's a caster and not responsible for the TV stations politics, I am blaming the TV station or rather I am blaming the TV stationS and media - for not reporting about the anti-atom-protests! but ignoring this part~
I am happy Zero managed to squeeze in some critic, although I am not sure if it was planed, since it came during the live part from one of the former inhabitants of a now evacuated town only 2km away from Fukushima Dai-Ichi - the should the hell speed up! to care for the people, to think about what to do and to do something! and, my inner Sho-fan tells me, I am sure Sho was thinking the same, when he stood there, seeing the plant 2 km away and hearing this man say: he has no idea where he is now or in 5 oder 10 years. he doesn't now where his home is. what he should do to find a new one.
