Day 390: Hiroshima and Nagasaki

On August 6th and 9th, 75 years ago, people in Hiroshima and Nagasaki died and suffered by the nuclear bombs.

The Economist reports that our "denshosha" is very important as "their stories may deter the world from ever using the bomb again", although it would be "unlikely" to abolish it.

To respect our humdrum but graceful lives, we have to tell our stories.
