My heart goes out to Japan! I couldn’t sleep all night, when I heard of the news I was basically GLUED to the television, I was in the OH! moment. I couldn’t believe my eyes, looking at the tsunami, almost looked like a great animated picture. But, no it wasn’t, it was as real as I was pinching my cheeks! The power of the tsunami was so beautiful, so magnificent, yet incredibly scary. What a mix of emotions, I didn’t know if I were to scream, or cry! It felt like my stomach was punched few times, I felt so sick.

And it didn’t make me feel better when they announced the warning on Canada, and across the pacific shore, because I live in Vancouver, British Columbia, and by the water, how lovely! And on top of it all, I have few family members on Vancouver Island. As I said, I was glued to the T.V. I didn’t end up sleeping until 6am 😦 imagine how I felt all day today!
So far it was reported that 257 deaths in Japan, and the 88 thousand Japanese residents are unaccounted. Basically the earth’s access shifted 25 cm, Wow! And the destruction of images are unimaginable.
Cars, planes, houses, buildings being swept away, as if you are cleaning the floor and sweeping the dirt with a broom, imagine the thoughts and emotions that runs through your body when you see that.
I dont have any family members in Japan, but if I did, I wont be able to sit, think or talk straight. My heart goes to all the loved ones that are in Japan, I know that there are no communication connections available, so some tweets did help the day, with some people who had that available.
A view of a tsunami whirlpool swirling near a port in Oarai, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan, after its eastern coast was struck by a strong earthquake, how beautiful is that…. but would you want to be anywhere near it.

As we all know, we cannot control mother nature. We observed what happen to Haiti, Indonesian, Utah, California and many other destructions around world, and it is too much to bare to go through a horrifying tragedy once more.
The question is, How much more can we bare? How much more can we take? What is next? Who is next on the list? Are we supposed to learn something from this? And are we being punshed for what is happning around the world?
Your turn to answer and tell me your thoughts….. I am waiting ..tic tock, tic tock …
