earthquake

when you are living away from home... far far away from home... and something bad happens back home... it leaves u feeling so powerless and helpless.... not to be able to help or offer comfort or do anything. its scary not knowing and not being able to know. a little information is a dangerous thing. i had some terrified moments before i could get through to my parents. and then another few freaked out minutes when i found out that a building had collapsed where a friend lived and not knowing if it was the same one (it wasnt... thank god). a lot of ppl werent so lucky.

disaster closer to home is more of a disaster than anything much worse is a place u dont know about. it shakes u. it shakes u out of your comfort zone of.... its not me, its not my family so it doesnt matter. it can so easily be your family. in hte blink of an eye you can see it all be destroyed. it can so easily be your family, a friend, a friends family. its your home, your people.

pray for those people who were lost and who have lost. and ask for Gods mercy. you never know what can happen in just the blink of an eye.
