508's Secret English Garden

At the midnight of 921, a big earthquake hit Taiwan.  Many people were badly hurt and lots of buildings collapsed.

  I was woken up by the strange noise from the windows then.  I got up and tried to walk, but it was quite hard.  The floor kept shaking and many objects fell down, I was about to be hurt by an unknown object.  I was afraid and hopeless in the dark.  But, fortunately, I found other family members and successfully escaped from our home in the end.  The whole process was really terrible.  After leaving home, I even saw some other families cry out for help, being extremely painful and sad.

  It was the matter of life and death.  I was very thankful that all our family members were alive and fine.   Because some people were not so lucky to live out their lives, our family would more cherish the close relationship between each other after surviving from the earthquake.
