I am thinking about Japan - an 8.9 earthquake just shakes. I was still awake at around 2 am this morning when I saw it on one of my Facebook friend's status, and I immediately turned the television on. At that time, only the all-news channels had coverage. Since I knew I had to wake up this morning, I forced myself to tear away from the television to go to sleep. I knew that when I woke up there would be wall to wall coverage, and of course, there it was: every channel was fixated on this. My heart really goes out to the Japanese people affected by this natural disaster. Emiko posted on her Facebook wall that her family is ok; I was just about to write her to ask. This, at least, is good to hear. I have an appointment with her on Tuesday for a hair cut, and I don't know when she will be able to cut my hair again. Not to make this all about me, but I want her to be in good spirits while she cuts my hair. Okay, that last sentence was essentially a joke.
Half our life is spent
trying to find something to do with the time
we have rushed through life trying to save.
