My heart truly goes out to all of those in Japan and the other parts of the world affected by the earthquake and tsunami. It really is a reminder of how easily life can change and even be taken away. I didn't find out until early this morning when I received a text message and voice message from LMU. I had gone to bed on the early side last night and don't usually have time to watch TV in the mornings before I leave. The messages said that it was still safe to come on campus despite the tsunami warning (the school is located on a hill, however my apartment is only a mile from the ocean). I had no idea what they were talking about until I turned on CNN and saw the unbelievable footage. At work today, we tried to keep track of what was going on and I admit spent a good part of the day being stunned by the pictures and video. I feel so blessed for all the people in my life, my apartment, my health, my education, my job, and just everything else I tend to sometimes take for granted. My thoughts are with all of those devastated by this terrible tragedy.
