Everyone is wired within there own manner. That is we all have emotions and here it came to snowing again tonight but Japan has brought me down. I suppose there are those that are different. Well we are but this has been a time where I really have come to find that it is a downer.
The thought of all those people over there and all. I honestly have come to find that it's brought me down. Some feel more maybe and I do have feelings with all this. I am just sitting and thinking to myself why. Why this had to take place and for the most part this is the reason I don't get much into television as most all of it is bad news. I have found the past few days and then the things in which I see right now are something that really do hit hard.
Perhaps I am more, I don't know. But each night right now I do say a prayer. I don't know if it's going anywhere. But it's something right now I do as well as I hope. Who would have ever thought this would take place within these times.
Often I will just delete what I have wrote but this sincerely comes from the heart. But tomorrow is a new day right? I hope something good happens over there within Japan. Hope I hope and often I do where my heart on my shoulder within times like this.
Yet tomorrow is another day...
Peace,
Jack
Jack we have to just keep going about our days. If there is something we can do positive in the world do it. Hugs
ReplyDeleteIt is a real downer, I wept when I watched the news unfold. It is tragic, and your prayers do go somewhere. I know, I am down and I get to feeling embarassed and uncomfortable with luxuries when I know, over there many have died, are dying and have nothing. I've become deliberate and careful about everything I do, so that my life might have meaning and I pray to God for relief, comfort and strength and courage for the many people over there, in Japan.
ReplyDeleteIn Dr Marc's 'Wellness' class tonight he said one of the 5 factors of good health is positive mental attitude. He said to not watch the news, but if you have to watch it do it in the middle of the day, as in the morning and at night you are at your most receptive and there is way too much negativity in the news. The other 4 things are food, exercise, sleep and a sound nervous system (chiropractics takes care of that).
ReplyDeleteSMILE
Earthquakes and Tsunamis are part of the activities of the earth that have been going on ever since time began, we just didn't know about it before the age of mass media. I had an awakening when the disaster on 9-11 happened. I would not have been able to run or even walk away like those people had to. Some of them walked so far to get over the bridge and out of danger. That's when I realized I better start walking and exercising to get in some kind of shape. Though I didn't start till 2008. For some reason I ramble when commenting on your posts.
ReplyDeleteIt seems sometimes prayer is all we can do unless we are on the scene and helping out in some event, Jack.
ReplyDeleteI think part of the reason we feel down is the sense of helplessness. All this information is pouring in through the madia but it doesn't seem to be geting better in regard to the nuclear power plants especially.
I was doing "okay" with the incident until some boys were questioning me about it today at work...and venting their fears. I came home to see a story of dogs who are stranded and a baby found in the debris. I am saddened so by this. And yet I know natural disasters do happen. We are so fragile perched on this earth skin. But the universal love is all around us and in us. I cling to that.
ReplyDeleteohhhhhhhhh lordy..some days are just as overwhelming where all we have left is to pray and hope..sleep good..tomorrow is a new day..
ReplyDeletePrayers always are heard Jack! God is good!! All the time!!
ReplyDeleteGod is good. And He listens attentively to the heart that is full of love.
ReplyDeleteThe frustration of not being able to anything to really help is a downer. Along with the thoughts of "what if it happened here?" Watch, the Japanese will show us how they do it -- and have done it for centuries. They survive and prosper.
ReplyDeleteToday is a new day. Tomorrow will be another. We just put one foot in front of the other. (No rhyming intended, but it did turn out that way - lol.)
ReplyDeleteVery much so Doug. Thanks much as it's been that way, as one has to tune out of it. Yet there is that area that you do hope.
ReplyDeleteSilly me as I feel like a nut writing this but last night man it I can't come to understanding this. You know me well and we say life goes on and I understand desensitization. But last night at 9pm my time - I had my lot – the last three days.
God is...but
ReplyDeleteThere was a young lady that resided in Iraq. She had to sit and watch her friends die. She litterally was like Anne Frank and how she got throught that was only by measures. If not she would not be working now and happy in Singapore. There was help - not going there yet - I don't know how some endure this and some do get beyond it. Ironically for some reason she was able to move beyond it. Perhaps it was her age. True story and I don't thrive on the negative but this one - who doesnt see what all might happen - then what are we all going to write on or some act on?
ReplyDeleteJust thoughts..
