Description

My stepbrother is married to a Japanese American woman. My youngest cousin’s long time girlfriend was born in Japan. Both have family in Japan. Two other cousins worked at Ground Zero and escaped injury on 9/11. Today we received word that everyone in Japan is safe. Once again those close to me have been spared. A prayer of peace for those souls that were not and for those that still suffer. A Simple Prayer The mind can go in a million directions. But on this beautiful path I walk in peace. With each step, a cool breeze blows. With each step, a flower blooms. ~ Thich Nhat Hahn

I am very glad to read, that your loved ones are spared by all these dramatic events, as of late ... but I am not one to pray or preach - but having said that, I am in awe of natures display and deeply affected by all this partially men-made upheavals all around us and it scares me, when will we ever learn ?

I am also glad everyone is safe. As we talked before I spent some time in the orient as well. My first thoughts were of Okinawa where I have friends it was not hurt. The losses are staggering
