Part of the culture. Only care about your immediate family and closest friends. If you have no time for friends, even better. Also…Chinese people tend to have stone hearts. Part of the culture.

Of course, not everyone is strong enough to be able to handle that scale of devastation and it's always good to take breaks and relax (if possible). It really puts things in perspective... All in all, kudos to those kids and i hope they have VERY happy and successful careers (^-^) well, I agree with the whole “grieve at you own pace” statement and the “be somewhere else in your mind” comment but I, for one, would be out helping as many people as I could!!!

No better or worse than any other culture would react to catastrophe. But still admirable. Admirable in its own context. No better or worse than any other culture would react to catastrophe.

Just because some people feel it's the time for grieving and have their own idea about the 'right' way to grieve, doesn't meant you have to follow their order, you should be able to choose to grieve in your own way and in your own time. It should be free right? I thoguht freedom is an abstract thing that this era loved to brag about. Just like how a rejoicing matter is private, grieving matter is private too. If you can't put both on the same page, then you certainly had made double standard for living, and that's not true freedom. All in all, this is what you call as "Strong hearts". You grieve, you mourn for the lost souls(in your own way, in your own time) but in the end life goes on. Maybe, continuing with your life is among the best way to remember and respecting the dead. You live on, you carry on for their part too. You achieve your dream, in place of those kids who can never achieve their dreams. You live on for honoring the lost too. Life goes on. And this is probably one of the greatest power in a human being; to be able to stand up again after falling down, and start again from the beginning. I hope you will be able to continue with your life too, when some bad things happen to the souls you're close too. I believe, they would want you to be able to go on as well.
