Red Spot

The Japanese flag represents a sun; to me it's just a red spot.
Last Friday has been marked in my diary with a black spot. Like the one that marked the Tuesday of the New Zealand earthquake.
Pity Japan. So many thousands dead or missing.  Millions grieve and there is still the Damoclean sword of the damaged nuclear power stations hanging by its thread over the country.
Are prayers any use? Are thoughts and well-wishing? Is sending a cheque really going to help?
No idea.
But I'll try all three.  It might make me feel better, even if it does nothing for anyone Out There.

  1. It's hard for me to understand the scale of what has happened - I can't imagine what it must be like for the people there.
