Just horrible

I've been horrified by the situation in Japan, my heart aching for a country dealing with 3 major disasters in a row. I've been amazed by the calm and dignified behavior of people who are hurt, hungry and freezing, who have just lost loved ones as well as all of their possessions, as they continue to place the needs of others above their own.

Below is a link to satellite images of areas in Japan before and after the quake/tsunami/explosion.

It puts our little problems into sobering perspective.

More later,
Tammar
