Magnitude-6.7 quake hits Japan

Japanese are courageous people. Japan is their land and they know how to rebuild it.
Let's give them a hand to get up again, if they accept it. Oh God Almighty, have mercy
upon Japan - Ameen!

japan has seen enough destruction for a life time. God be with them

10 things shown by the people of Japan.



1. THE CALM
Not a single visual of chest-beating or wild grief. Sorrow itself has been elevated.

2. THE DIGNITY
Disciplined queues for water and groceries. Not a rough word or a crude gesture.

3. THE ABILITY
The incredible architects, for instance. Buildings swayed but didn’t fall.

4. THE GRACE
People bought only what they needed for the present, so everybody could get something.

5. THE ORDER
No looting in shops. No honking and no overtaking on the roads. Just understanding.

6. THE SACRIFICE
Fifty workers stayed back to pump sea water in the N-reactors. How will they ever be repaid?

7. THE TENDERNESS
Restaurants cut prices. An unguarded ATM is left alone. The strong cared for the weak.

8. THE TRAINING
The old and the children, everyone knew exactly what to do. And they did just that.

9. THE MEDIA
They showed magnificent restraint in the bulletins. No silly reporters. Only calm reportage.


10. THE CONSCIENCE
When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the shelves and left quietly!

I Pray for the people of Japan as well because they already had their previous earthquake that took many lives. They do not want history to repeat itself.

Japan lies on the ring of fire, as does the west coast of the United States. I think that the world has learned much from the spirit of the Japanese as they rebuild. I know they didn't need another reminder of their vulnerability. Who knows, we might be next... Prayers are nice, but they would probably rather have a donation or simply respect. As to the guy who said "remember Pearl Harbor"... that's in the past. If they can forgive Hiroshima and Nagasaki (granted Pearl Harbor came first), we should do the same. We should study History, not hang onto it. Best of luck to those who survive catastrophic natural occurrences everywhere.

You folks in Japan have had a tough year, I hope things get a lot better here on out. I respect the composure and respect your people have shown during your crisis.

dificult to figure how such a society of honor and accomplishment gathers such grief, and realizes it's not deserved by no means

We hope no one died. They've been through a lot as it is already. God be with them.

Wow it really seems that some get more than their share of tragedy. Blessings Japan

very sorry for those unfortunates peoples of Japon . I will pray for them .

My job was outsourced a few years back to japan for cheap labor, if the island sinks will I get my job back?

My prayers go out to the people of Japan. The earths plates shifting along the ( Ring of Fire) has been happening along time, but in Physic their is aways and equal an opposite effect. If the earth plates are relieving pressure in Japan somewhere along the Ring of Fire will be another shift. Lets hope and pray that it's somewhere that will not bring pain to any people. My heart and prayers go out to everyone living near the (Ring Of Fire) God Bless!!!

Mall 727 continues to cover the stories in Japan in English, including NHK World Service Television in English as well. My Prayers go to the Japanese at this extra stress in their lives.
