In our studies today, Morgan and I researched and talked about the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear threat that is going on in Japan.
Just exactly how an earthquake happens and then a tsunami forms is an amazing thing, to say the least. I really didn't know too much about how a nuclear power plant worked, so it was a great science lesson for us both. Sometimes things such as these are hard to wrap my little brain around.
However, you can talk all about the "science" of it you want, but those poor people are living a nightmare. To me, that is the real lesson. Living minute to minute not knowing what is going to happen next. Sure does make me thankful... and hopefully teaches me to think outside "my little world".
The situation in Japan just leaves me utterly speechless!!! My heart breaks for the people, especially the ones who have lost everything. I could not ever even begin to imagine what that would feel like. (nor do I want to)
