The earthquake

As you know, the magnitude 9.0 earthquake hit northeastern Japan on 11 March.

I was working here in Kyoto at the moment.
I heard about it on TV and i did not believe what i saw.
The huge tsunami attacked many people, buildings and atomic power plants..


Now Japanese have faced huge difficulty.
But certainly we can overcome this disaster.

Because we know many people from all over the world prays for Japan and have donated lots of money and things.
We also got many warm messages.
We really appreciate it.


I have donated money too (a bit though), and trying to cut down on electricity usage that only i can do right now..



Thoughts and prayers are with people suffered from the earthquake.
