I'll always be there for you
我永远都会在你的身边
In 1989 an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened America, killing over 30,000 people in less than four minutes.
1989年，一次8.2级的地震几乎铲平美国，在短短不到4分钟的时间里，夺去了3万多人的生命！
In the midst of utter devastation and chaos, a father left his wife safely at home and rushed to the school where his son was supposed to be, only to discover that the building was as flat as a pancake.
在彻底的破坏与混乱之中，有位父亲将他的妻子在家里安顿好后，跑到他儿子就读的学校，而触目所见，却是被夷为平地的校园。
After the unforgettably initial shock, he remembered the promise he had made to his son: "No matter what, I ll always be there for you!"
看到这令人伤心的一幕，他想起了曾经对儿子所作的承诺："不论发生什么事，我都会在你身边。"
And tears began to fill his eyes. As he looked at the pile of ruins that once was the school, it looked hopeless, but he kept remembering his commitment to his son.
至此，父亲热泪满眶。目睹曾经的学校成为了一堆瓦砾，真叫人绝望。但父亲的脑中仍然牢记着他对儿子的诺言。
He began to direct his attention towards where he walked his son to class at school each morning.
他开始努力回忆每天早上送儿子上学的必经之路
Remembering his son s classroom would be in the back right corner of the building, he rushed there and started digging through the ruins.
终于记起儿子的教室应该就在那幢建筑物后面，位于右边的角落里，他跑到那儿，开始在碎石砾中挖掘，搜寻儿子的下落。
As he was digging, other helpless parents arrived, clutching their hearts, saying: "My son!" "My daughter!"
当这位父亲正在挖掘时，其他束手无策的学生家长赶到现场，揪心地叫着："我的儿子呀！" "我的女儿呀！"
Other well meaning parents tried to pull him off what was left of the school, saying: "It s too late! They re all dead! You can t help!
一些好意的家长试图把这位父亲劝离现场，告诉他"一切都太迟了！"他们全死了！"这样做没用的"
Go home! Come on, face reality, there's nothing you can do!"
"回去吧，这样做只会使事情更糟"。
