#2 TOLLCROSS FIRESTATION

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for others







Sometimes I walked to Evolution House (where our studio was) just to take a look at the empty building, and this fire station was on my way home.

One day I noticed there were some bouquets with cards on the floor. It’s for a firefighter who sacrificed himself for saving people in 2009.

I stood there, couldn’t talk for ages.

Not for the noble act of that firefighter but for the unchanged love from his family and friends that kept them putting flowers and words in front of the fire station for over ten years, even during pandemic and lockdown.

有時候我會特別走到學校工作室窗外晃一晃,回家路上便會經過這個消防站。

有一天我發現地上有花束,實在太好奇所以偷看了一下卡片內容,才知道原來消防站牆上的黃銅紀念牌上寫著2009年有一位消防員在火災中犧牲了,卡片裡面都是對他的思念與愛。

我駐足良久、無法言語,這個消防員的親友超過十年來不間斷的寫信送花給他,即使封城期間也不曾停止。

有些事情並不會因為疫情而改變。
