Another Day

So for some reason I thought it would be cool to be anonymous but all of my friends and alot of other aquintances will know my email. Oh well, it happens. Today was actually an okay day. I don't know why I said actually because the majority are good days. The weather was not good. Oh man and when I was in the Lobby today I saw CNN and the Earthquake in China that killed 9,000 people. That is so horrible. I hate for this blog to become depessing but can we think about this for a minute? 9,000 people died. I find it a little disturbing at how little this will be televised in our local area. Now I know that it is not local news, Im aware, but it just seems to me that had this been the US, our lives would have stopped completely for these victims. But since it was all the way in China, half of our country probably has no idea it even happened, let alone has given it a thought. It's just sad. One person made a comment today "The world is falling apart" I just looked back up to the top to reread, and I said it was an okay day...9,000 people died. I don't want to sound insensitive, but thats how my absent minded thoughts happen at times.
Wow, I hate to be Debbie Downer. Seriously I do. I was thinking of things I could blog about and one idea was to write about the meditations or readings I attempt to read daily, it might actually hold me liable to do the reading. But do I really want my thoughts out there? And then I thought, does anyone read these?hmmm I had 5 profile views, were they all me? lol It could be because I dont have the most reliable interenet, it comes and goes. But anyway, the lesson today was that tragedies happen, all around us near and far, but are we too busy to notice? Or can we actually do something? I guess thats questions instead of lessons, but I learned alot.
