Amazing.

And looking further back in your Open Diary I see you referred to For The Time Being after 9/11, as I did last week.

So many threads of meaning.

yep
"Page 48:"Numbers. We have dated waves, as well as clouds. On April 30th,1991- on that one day- 138,000 people drowned in Bangladesh. At dinner I mentioned to my daughter, who was then seven years old, that it was hard to imagine 138,000 people drowning. "No, it's easy," she said,"Lots and lots of dots, in blue water."

sure rings bells now too *sigh*

Donating money is definitely a great way of helping out, but certainly not the only way. I also made a monetary donation, but as a full-time student I couldn't afford too give much... that doesn't mean I don't want to help though! I've been helping at the Medecins Sans Frontier/Doctors without Borders office just answering phones and processing donations, plus sending oOodles of love, prana and prayers to the victims and survivors.
This does seem to be a tipping point though, in terms of awakening awareness and compassion for people around the world... I'm just so sorry it had to be at the cost of so many lives :(
