I have many thoughts and ideas for blog posts running through my mind, and absolutely zero energy to type them up. It's been a couple of days of not sleeping well--not helped by being scared awake at 3:00 this morning by street racers on my street--I'm near the back of my apartment complex and could still hear them as though they were right outside my bedroom window. I had to scrape myself off the ceiling, and then I had to get up and do an apartment walk-through just to ease my mind.
Anyway, with a couple nights of so-so sleep and my super-awesome workout today, I find myself sleepy and lazy and only wanting to lounge on the couch watching "Law & Order: UK" when I'm not tuned into CNN for the latest news from Japan.
Because as frightened as I was waking at 3:00 in the morning to annoying twats burning rubber, I can't imagine the terror, the confusion, and the pain the people of Japan are feeling right now. My heart goes out to them tonight.
Sadly, crisis seen from afar (sometimes across the street, sometimes across the world) often puts my life into better perspective. And then I feel guilt that I attained that badly needed perspective from someone else's suffering.
ReplyDeleteI'll be doing what I can to help relief efforts and holding the people of Japan, and those affected by the ripples of destruction, in my thoughts and prayers, too.
