Al final todos empezaron a caminar hacia la frontera más cercana.
La oscuridad no significó tanto como el silencio. No hay radio, ni televisión, menos Internet y los teléfonos no suenan. Nunca se sabrá con seguridad que sucedió. La red de distribución eléctrica colapsó y nadie la reparó, algunos llegaron a compararlo con lo sucedido en Chernobyl, solo que no hubo oleadas de radiación, una sola oleada de millones de migrantes. Los cálculos oficiales oscilaron entre 15 y 20 millones, las versiones más aceptadas estiman que al final migraron más de 36 millones.
Hoy recordamos aquella fecha increíble comparable a la demolición de las torres gemelas o la desaparición de la Isla de Las Palmas asolada por una erupción volcánica o cuando se derrumbó el Bitcoin.
Solo los caminantes recuerdan que alguna vez no fueron extranjeros, que nacieron en un paraíso donde manaba leche y miel, hoy tierra de nadie que se pelean aguerridos ejércitos terroristas de distintas siglas o ideologías, mineros a la caza tesoros y flotas de pescadores que disfrutan del mar que ninguna bandera reclama.
20 años han pasado, cuando se cumplan 200 nadie nos recordará. El tiempo se ha ido, viento se llevo el recuerdo de lo perdido.
Twenty years have passed since that distant day when the light went out and never came back.
It came back for some, it came back for those who had power plants and the possibility of buying gasoline or diesel. The rest waited, some for a week, others for two.
In the end they all started walking to the nearest border.
The darkness did not mean as much as the silence. There is no radio, no television, even less Internet and the phones don't ring. It will never be known for sure what happened. The power grid collapsed and no one repaired it, some even compared it to Chernobyl, only there were no waves of radiation, but a single wave of millions of migrants. Official estimates ranged between 15 and 20 million, the most accepted versions estimate that in the end more than 36 million migrated.
Today we remember that incredible date comparable to the collapse of the twin towers or the disappearance of the Island of Las Palmas devastated by a volcanic eruption or when the Bitcoin collapsed.
Only the walkers remember that once they were not foreigners, that they were born in a paradise where milk and honey flowed, today no man's land where fierce terrorist armies of different acronyms or ideologies fight, miners on the hunt for treasure and fleets of fishermen enjoying the sea that no flag claims.
Twenty years have passed, when 200 years have passed no one will remember us. Time has gone, the wind has carried away the memory of what was lost.
