在充满死亡和破坏的现场,生活正在恢复正常。通常,这是一个充满希望的迹象。在位于曼谷市中心的四面佛遭受致命炸弹袭击的现场,印度教信徒很快又回到这里进行朝拜,与此同时,人们也回到这里用手机自拍留念。这是不是我们对悲剧的一种自然反应呢?有的时候,一件事的微小细节,会给人留下最深的印象。美国9·11事件已经过去14年了,在那天发生的各种事情中,我记忆最深的是晚上去纽约一家酒吧所感受的一片沉默。 Life is returning to normal at a scene full of death and destruction. This is usually a sign of hope. Hindu devotees returned quickly to worship at the scene of a deadly bomb attack at the Erawan Shrine in downtown Bangkok, meanwhile, people came back to take pictures of themselves on their cell phones. Is this a natural reaction to the tragedy? Sometimes, the minute details of one thing give the deepest impression. It has been 14 years since the U.S. incident of September 11, and among the various things that happened that day, my deepest memory was the silence I felt at a bar in New York City at night.
