I got a e-mail today from the parents of a great friend of mine. It made my heart and soul hurt. It informed me that my friend and her 8 yr. old daughter didn't survive the horrific earthquake in China. The worst in 3 decades.

I really don't know why I'm posting this. I'm not looking for comfort, I am quite calm with death in fact. But, of course I am sad and frustrated. I guess, if anything, I just wanted to ask that you please take a moment of silence in your busy lives for my friend. She was doing what she always wanted though. Teaching young children English.

Thanks, and as always, peace.

Chrriiii! (biiig hug as I tackle you to the ground!)

Sorry for not adding ya right away. I am back after...welll...after a lot of reasons. But, good to be back.

Yeah, it's been a long, emotional roller coaster of a week. But that's how life is. So, I'm doing my zen thing to keep myself in check.

Thanx for the kind words, which I am sure is just the beginning of many more to come.

Aww, thanks a lot.Yeah it was a real shock to find it out, especially when I had just got a e-mail from her about a week prior. So sad about her daughter too. I'm heading to the funeral though.
