Grateful






Remembering the sad earthquake that happened in Japan 2 years ago on this day. During such a troubled time for the country, it triggered some issues at home that needed to be addressed immediately.  It was probably a stressful period for every single soul residing at Japan that time.



Today, I held my child to feel his warmth with all the sensory in me, closed my eyes and observed a moment of silence.  Such tragedies could happen to anyone, it could have been us, and if it happened that way then I wouldn't have the chance to see how my baby looks like.  



Many must be still deeply sorry for all the victims, and deserving or not, grateful about their present happiness.  I'm one of them.   When he's old enough, may I not forget to let him  know about this dreadful disaster, and the important lessons it teaches.

It's always so important to be grateful for what we have, Stardust, and especially when the hardships life can bring are made so clear to us.
Hugs to you xx
