Sketch: Great Wall of China 手绘：长城

My Sketch: Great Wall.
The Great Wall is always a source of amazement and a national emblem for all Chinese. Some how we are proud of the Wall. Who can think of building such a long wall in the middle of nowhere? I guess the Emperor did not want just to protect a city but a whole country. It was HIS country after all. It would be normal to build walls around a city, that's what every one else did. A wall sets a border, a division, a setting apart you vs us. We are not the same any more. We are inside and you outside. Walls are not easy to take down. We like it for it gives us a sense of security, yet walls never remove the enmity. The wall kept us inside. It not restricted the movement but also the mind.
Do you like the Wall, or regret it?

我的素描：长城。
长城始终是所有中国人的惊喜和国家的象徵。 我们为长城而自豪。 谁能想到在这个荒野之地建这么长长的一堵墙呢？ 我想秦始皇並不是要保护一方城市，而是一个整个国家。 毕竟这是他的国家。 在城市周围建墙是正常不過的，这是每个人都做的。
城墙设置了一个边界，一个分边，一个分开你與我们的设置。 人们從此不一样了。 我们在里面，你在外面。 城墙不容易倒下。 我们喜欢它，因为它给了我们一份安全感，但城墙卻永远不会消除敌意。城墙把我们圍在里面。 它不限制了活动，也限制了思維。
你喜欢长城？还是感到遺憾呢？
