Where my cats are
I was up when the weather channel was just getting news of it but I didn't stay up to see what became of it all. My best friend just moved back state side from Japan last summer. (Military family) I've been texting with her and everyone on Okinawa is ok from what she knows. The coats were evacuated as a precaution but the waves weren't too bad. She knows a few people on the mainland too and I guess they are all accounted for.

My prayers are with everyone affected by this. So much devastation lately.

It makes me so thankful for everything. I could just cry when I see all those towns, and people just washed away.

It makes you think....when things like this happen, there are no borders. We are all together in this world. It just makes me think and be thankful and pray for those poor people and animals.

It's just dreadful - words just cannot express how dreadful. It's easy to watch the pictures and be awestruck by the power of natural forces; but down at ground level all the life swept away......


My thoughts are with them all - for what it's worth to them. For those that we know, I hope that all our members in Japan and everywhere that may be affected by the tsunami and all of your families are safe and well

I recall in one of her posts she said that her contract was not renewed and she was headed back to the states. She had a thread asking about international airline travels.

I have been watching it on and off all day on the news and its just terrible, how on earth will they ever come through this? There are so many theories from the moon, an act of god e.t.c... but I read that the pressure has been building up under the sea for many years and they have been monitoring it, shame they didn't know this was about to happen. I have just read that the tsunami warnings for everyone else has been scaled down so lets hope it doesn't cause any more devestation. My thoughts are with all those affected. We in England moan about the bad weather but we have never experienced anything as bad as this, we are very lucky.xxx

Yes, but she isn't leaving until the 28th.

I'm still stunned by the whole thing. I'm sure part of it was watching it happen live. It made the thousands of miles that separate me from Japan completely disappeared and it was the same as watching 9/11 or Katrina happen live. Knowing that people and animals are dying right before my eyes and being completely powerless to do anything to help them.

Hopefully the tsunami threat is done now and we can look to recovering and healing.

My heart hurts for those affected by this disaster... It is so horrible. I feel so bad for those that died, and for their families.

I had a nightmare once that I was in a hotel on the beach when a Tsunami came, the feeling of helplessness was so aweful and unbearable. Watching the waves coming in, and not being able to get out of the building and run fast enough. And that was just a dream, I feed so bad for the people going through this right now.

Its just so sad, all the way around. I hope it is over, and they don't have to go throught it again.

It seems the tsunami threat is somewhat diminished. There was a tsunami warning for Vancouver Island earlier, but I gather it has been lifted since. Still... If I lived in any of the areas that had been threatened, I wouldn't be getting complacent anytime soon.

Many and prayers going out for everyone affected or still threatened.
