Hiroshima Memorial Day: Special Feeling This Year

We introduced our niece this year the material fact of the atomic bomb dropped 71 years ago.

Today’s 71st Hiroshima atomic bomb memorial day. This year seems to be a particularly special year for the survivors after the incumbent President of the United States made a historic visit to the ground-zero and the peace memorial hall. 

I too have a special feeling this year, because we visited Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum earlier July with our niece came all the way from Akola, Maharashtra. I don’t have much idea about what exactly she received the message from each of the exhibits in the museum. Only one thing I can believe is that she would never forget about the fact of the ugliest acts of the human being during the WWII and in the entire her life, she would talk about it to her friends, children, grandchildren or younger generations.
