大致讲述如下：
On 8th April, 2020, after 76 days locked down, wuhan could finally embrace the sun. My city becomes alive again with promising spirits spreading in the air and faded terror disappering by the wind. Everything is back to normal, featuring the victory of this battle.
In this video, firstly, I am going to take you guys to see some part of my city and the measurements taken now. And then, I'd love to show you the Jiangtan Park near the Yangze River in my district. In the end, I'd love to share with you guys my thoughts during this hard time. So let's begin.
So basically, every community has its entrance check-in and check-out procedures. everytime you leave or enter the place, in our community, we need to scan the QR code and register our movement whether to go outside or go inside, then if your QR code shows green, it means that you are healthy to go.
And you can see, there were blocks before to prevent people from going out.
Right now, all the transportation has been back in use. If you are going to take a bus here, you need to first scan the QR code on the bus and register your movements to go on the bus, and then another helper on the bus will take the thermometer out and test every passenger's temperature to make sure they are not suspcious of infecting the virus. And you need to scan the QR code again after leaving the bus.
Here is one of the banks, people waiting outside sitting on the chair, because only less than 10 people will be allowed in the bank. They need to go on the same procedure which is temperture measuring and scan the QR code when entering and leaving the bank. The same things will be done when entering the market.
Okay, the things above are bascially what I have seen and experienced of the measurements here. Let's go to the Jiangtan Park.
So the Jiangtan Park is located along both side the Yangtze River, which is the longest river in Asia. We call it 长江 in Chinese. It origins from different sources of 坨坨river, It flows through wuhan and we Wuhanness live by the river, drink and eat from the river, we are connected to the river and thus love the river.
So this is the end of part 2, hope you guys enjoy it :) And if you have a chance to go to China, come here, nature combined with artifiial buildings will never disappoint you.
During this time, I had suffered, liberated, thrived and grown up a lot. It's an amazing time for me even I just stayed in such a small place.
When our society suddenly shuts down, all we confront is me, myself and I. We might encounter all kinds of mental disorder issues. Probably most people woule feel lonely and depressed. But hey, let's slow down a bit. Let's think about what has caused our anxiety, how we deal with mental issues?
Growing up in this world, where technology dominates most part of our life, we are somehow unconciously pursuing all kinds of convience and efficiency. We are trying to read faster, learn faster, eat faster, achieve things faster and even have thoughts faster, thus today's social media and platforms literally suit us in the best way. I feel like we have been pushing onto a high-speed train, running for the society to work day in and day out. Going where? Powering what? Everytime when we are free, we are drowning into social parties, reading and watching fragmented information online, suffering the emotional inconsistence, becoming slaves of the internet. We are self-absuing ourselves, feeling proud of our anti-establishment views and finally become ghost or dust disappearing in this universe.
I realize that the truth is we hardly give our brain a real rest and I don't know how long that I haven't been peacefully listened to my heart and brain. We just keep running and running ahead, getting rid of the frame of traditions, the burden of history, trying to find the so-called liberation or mental happiness, while we are the people who are entirely constraint by the era, and those short happiness never truly exist in your mental part.
It's kinda pathetic because for many of my friends, if I ask about their passion or even interests, they come up with nothing.
So I am thinking about it's time for us to give ourselves a break, to meditate, to read, to isolated think and write something, and to form our own judgements, to find your interests, to try to appreciate the life you have and the surroundings you are living. Be humble, be grateful and be a thinking being.
Don't let the noise of the outside world drown down your our inner voice.
