Dear friends, today I would like to share with you a shocking, heavy and heartwarming true story.
In the early morning of May 1, 2024, a tragic landslide occurred on the Meida Expressway in Meizhou City, Guangdong. As a result, 48 people were unfortunately killed and 30 were injured. Numbers are cold, but behind each number there is a vivid life and a figure of struggle. Today, we focus on the personal experience of a family who used their courage and humanity to save themselves and the lives of others in the midst of this brutal disaster.
On a night of family reunion, Mr. Rao's family of 7 drove home. No one thought of a trip that was supposed to be safe. will suddenly fall into a life-and-death crisis. When the vehicle reached the collapsed road, Mr. Rao keenly noticed that there was an abnormality ahead. It was judged that the water immediately changed lanes and accelerated through. However, the body slammed, followed by the cracking of tires. When I got out of the car, it turned out that the entire lane had collapsed!
Under the dark night, Mr. Rao's family picked up their mobile phones and waved them again and again, shouting "don't drive forward", but some of the vehicles that came after them fell directly into the collapsed lane. Watching the vehicle fall, Mr. Rao's father-in-law was in a hurry. Climb over the guardrail and go backwards to the other side and continue to wave. But the cars kept coming, and they looked like they were home.
At this critical moment, Mr. Rao's father-in-law knelt in the middle of the driveway! The headlights hit him and finally the car stopped. The driver asked him if he was "dying". After learning the truth, even an aunt knelt down and said "thank you" from the bottom of her heart.
From that moment on, the work of stopping the car finally paid off. Red brake lights lit up one after another, and the lane was filled with slowing cars in front and behind. The crisis has finally eased, but at what cost did the family pay? Mr. Rao's father-in-law had an emotional breakdown and his mother stayed up all night. But instead of being afraid, they feel glad they can save more lives. During the interview, my father-in-law said, "Let's take a group photo with our family, we are very lucky." "
Life is indeed the most precious gift in the world. In this tragedy, we see the dark side of human nature. But more than that, there is the bright side: the love of family, the love of life, the courage and fearlessness, and the ability to save people at any cost. It is this spirit that allows the family to turn the tide of danger in times of crisis and defend the dignity of life with actions.
Friends, when we are facing an existential crisis. Will we be as courageous and fearless as Mr. Rao's family? If you can't be sure of life or death, will you risk your life to save strangers? You and I should both applaud the heroic deeds of this family and rejoice in the existence of life. I hope that this story can make each of us cherish the present moment more, love life, dare to stand up, and defend the glory of humanity with actions.
