My Earthquake Helmet |
Last year, when I got off the plane from Tokyo, I realized I had only taken three pictures during the month that I had been gone. This time around, I am taking more pictures, even if they are just grainy photos snapped with a Blackberry. And this is how I ended up with a picture of the little white helmet I hope not to have to use while I'm here.
These helmets are issued to every employee in my office and, I think, most offices, which is why one of the images that I most remember from last-year's post-earthquake walk home was the sea of little white helmets everywhere I looked. I knew a lot of people who carried their helmet with them for the next week.
