Historical day

友人が教えてくれましたが今日11月9日はベルリンの壁が崩れた日らしいです(約30年前)。私が住んでる場所は旧東ドイツ側で、開発が遅かったからかどこか都会らしくなくて住み良い感じです。同じ国内で西と東に分かれるというのはとても過酷な歴史であり、数奇な運命に翻弄された方が沢山居たと思います。まだ問題は残ってるそうですが、何にせよ分断から解放された記念すべき日だと思います。

One of my friends taught me that today, November 9th, is the day the Berlin Wall fell (about 30 years ago). I’m living on the former East German side, and maybe because development was slow, it doesn’t feel like an urban, so it’s a good place to live. It’s a very harsh history to be divided into the west and the east in the same country, and I think there were many people who were tossed by a strange fate. It seems that there are still problems, but anyways, it’s a memorable day that they were released from division.
