"我的相機丟了，該怎麼辦！”當我發現我的相機不見後，這是我心中吶喊的第一句話；隨即腦海中出現另一句吶喊：”我瘸了，該怎麼辦！”這是當四川大地震後，一位年輕女生獲救時發現她失去一條腿後，狂聲大喊的第一句話，相形之下，我的失去真的顯得微不足道。看到災後的滿目瘡痍，有如人間煉獄，心情真的很沈重，希望災民能夠樂觀地秉持信心，在大家的支持幫忙之下，早日重建家園。

以下是小梅寄發的信件，邀請大家盡點心力來救助災民並協助災後的重建。其中列出幾個可以線上捐款的連結。

This is an email sent out by my friend to encourage us to make a donation to help the victims of the big earthquake in China.

------------------------------------------------------------

The earthquake in China's Sichuan has killed over 50,000 people so far. It could go higher with many missing. I still remember how scary the Taiwan 921 earthquake in 1999 was. I am writing you to seek your help for those people suffering now. Please donate to any of the following organizations for your convenience. Encourage your friends and coworkers to do so by forwarding this email or talking to people during lunch time. I know many people have donated or are thinking to donate some. Any amount can help a lot. It is as easy as online shopping but much more meaningful. Thank you for your generous support.
