what a beautiful post! It's touching to think of the two tragedies together. And it's so sad that so many have died in Japan. So many more than in the twin towers. What a great reminder to treasure those we love.

Beautiful post. Thanks so much, Nat.

Living

The fire in leaf and grass
so green it seems
each summer the last summer

The wind blowing, the leaves
shivering in the sun,
each day the last day.

A red salamander
so cold and so
easy to catch, dreamily

moves his delicate feet
and long tail, I hold
my hand open for him to go.

Each minute the last minute

Denise Levertov

Thanks for a beautiful and interesting post, Nat.

Earthquakes, tsunamis, nuclear meltdowns, typhoons, hurricanes, tornadoes, terrorism, illness, or simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time. We need to treasure our loved ones, and enjoy our lives while we can.

So true, Nat. So true. Thank you for your beautiful and moving post.

What a beautiful post. Your last few sentences were especially powerful. I'll spend the day remembering all those who were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
