Japan

It's heartbreaking to see Japan in such a devastating state. More than 10,000 lives had perished and few hundred thousands people have to be evacuated due to the meltdown of nuclear plants in Fukushima . Furthermore, it was also said that this is the costliest disaster ever as total losses could exceed $100 billion. *my prayers and wishes are with people of Japan*

Surprisingly, this sudden disaster makes me realize life is unpredictable and extremely vulnerable. Our lives appear to be subjected to the whims of "someone". Until this moment, life seems no longer in the control of our hand as we cannot fathom when our lives will be taken away. Becoming aware of all these, I understand that living the moment is the utmost consideration. Hence, live as if everyday is the last day of our lives and appreciate the people around us.
