Head up, Power on
Firstly my condolences to all those affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake. My heart goes out to everyone.
Sorry for the lack of blogging recently. As you can see below, the last entry was about the earthquake in New Zealand. A number of our friends in Christchurch suffered serious damage to their houses, and some have lost their jobs due to the central business district closure. I'm sure the city will get back on feet in time, hopefully before too long.
March 11, 2011, what a catastrophe. Not just the people of Japan, but the whole world has been shocked by the devastation. After worrying for almost a month about friends in Christchurch and what could have been if we still lived there, then witnessing the destruction in Tohoku, I couldn't really find the appropriate words to blog for a while. As my friend said recently, the first month after the earthquake was a month to pray, not play.
But everyone must go forward, learn lessons for the future, and make a better, brighter Japan. We can do it and I'm looking ahead to that day.
Life goes on - To take it the right direction we need cooperation and compassion.
