(by Mr. Isawa Miyahara, an evacuee at Senjuin, Kamaishi, Iwate Prefecture)
I’m in construction. Several people around me were washed away by the tsunami. The wave was unimaginably huge. I built my house here nine years ago. I took great pains to build with the strongest materials I could find. But my house was no match for the tsunami. I intend to rebuild on this land. This land is all I have to hang my hopes on now.
