Mother Nature

Tuesday night.
It is pouring outside. Huge rain drops hit my window like bullets. It has flooded most of the parts in downtown LA and Melrose. Lightening strikes constantly. i am sitting at home and worried about my commute tomorrow morning.

Watching the news doesn't make it any easier.
In south east asia, entire families are swept away. Children float by in water. Huge waves take lives away right in front of the eyes.
60,000 people died. more people are missing.

once again, we are reminded how insignificant and helpless our dear lives are in front of mother nature.
but...we all know that the survivors will somehow manage to carry on with their lives when all of this ends, they will learn to live with the pain of losing loved ones. i don't know how they'll do it. but over and over again in history, we have survived in situations worse than today. They certainly can do it again. Paradise lost, paradise will be rebuilt.
