I usually start every blog by saying, “Good morning!”, but this morning that feels a little disrespectful to all of the people in the world today affected by the massive 8.9 earthquake that hit Japan, and the resulting Tsunami that is still spreading its way across the Pacific.
For some reason, I was still up at 12:30 this morning, and I just felt like I had to check the news, which I NEVER do in the middle of the night! I was shocked by the news that I read, and my heart and prayers immediately went to all of the family members of anyone who has been directly effected by these natural disasters. It sounds like the 8.9 earthquake was just a portion of the events that literally shook Japan, as they are still dealing with all sorts of aftershocks, some of which are still considered quite large.
As I think on these people that I do not even know, it also reminds me to take stock of the people in my life that are the most important to me; friends and family that would be effected by losing me, or vice versa, me losing them!! I shudder to think of it. As you go through out your day today, I pray that you are safe, loved, and are even able to be happy!!
Have a FABULOUS BLESSED day!
I know. I was checking my phone this morning at 4am and saw several posts on my FB about blessing those in Japan. I am like…what? What does that mean and why? So I turned on the TV and was shocked to see what happened! I am thinking of them and praying for them as well!
Yes, I had a niggling feeling in the middle of the night last night to check the new only to find that. Sad, so very sad!!

It’s unbelievable. Watching the images of what is happening there, I can’t even imagine how they’ll start repairing and restoring those poor peoples lives.
Yes, it makes EVERYTHING that I have been stressing about seem so minor and frivolous!! It has reminded me to work being grateful, as well as letting my loved ones know how much they mean to me!! What an eye-opener!

Watching it over and over again on the computer….seeing all those cars and houses being destroyed….I hope to God that no one was in any of those. I hope they find everyone. God be with the people and loved ones of everyone there.
I was shocked just watching the car floating along the water as if they were leaves floating on a stream. It is just such a sad, sad, tragedy! My heart goes out to all affected!
I love you, Sis!!! 😉
