Beautiful thought, My heart goes out to Japan as I watch the news in awe, praying the lost are found alive and terrified for their country and the nuclear reactor. Tragedy.

Hi Jasmine, Welcome to PassingThru and thank you for your comment. You’re right, it’s an incomparable tragedy.
I’ve been following the news and feeling helpless, until I realized I CAN help. Thank you for this.
Hi Vered – It is a gut-wrenching feeling of helplessness as the magnitude of this disaster unfolds. Every little thing we do can mitigate it even in a small way. Thank you.
Hi Betsy,
Thank you for sharing this. What Japan is facing is heartbreaking. I know it won’t be easy for them to rebuild or to forget what has happened, but having worked for a Japanese corporation and having dear friends who are Japanese, I know with the brotherhood they share, their love for Japan and their dedication to hard work, Japan will come back even stronger. In the meantime, the process will undoubtedly be difficult. My prayers will remain with them.

Hi Barbara – I am hoping your Japanese contacts are well and safe, and I agree with your assessment of their work ethic and prediction that Japan will prevail over this tragedy. Now the tragedy is breaking our hearts, but out of this pain will come great things. Thank you.
