Time has passed so quickly since the Great East Japan Earthquake.
Where were you and what were you doing at that time?
I live inland, so I wasn't affected by the tsunami.
The biggest problem was gasoline.
Other than gasoline, I am also a farmer, so food, etc.
There were so many that I thought it was good to be in the countryside.
Electricity was also cut off,
I was able to use my house's tractor as power to run my bathroom and appliances.

When the earthquake occurred, I was riding heavy machinery in the mountains on my farm and didn't notice.
I finally noticed it when someone who worked nearby called out to me.
On the morning of the third day after the earthquake, I headed to Minamisanriku to deliver vegetables, eggs, meat, and other items.
I didn't know how scary a tsunami was, but
After experiencing the earthquake, whenever I hear the word ``tsunami,'' I still break out in a disgusting sweat.
I want to keep this experience in my memory and live my life without forgetting the spirit of helping each other.
