Watching the news

tonight I watched the news and listened to a woman in Japan, a survivor of the earthquake and tsunami. She said that every one she knew was gone, dead, washed away from her town. It just struck me as so incredibly tragic. It is one hardship to have to deal with loss of a home, roads, transportation, a job, access to food. But to lose Everyone? I can hardly imagine the sorrow and loneliness and sadness. I'm sure evacuation centers and government workers will care for her needs like food and shelter. But to lose all her relationships so suddenly? Heartbreaking. Makes me feel guilty to just be able to call someone, drive in my car to work, see friends at church. It makes me want to hug everyone in my life that I love and care for and even have a casual acquaintance with. I'm praying for all those broken hearts in Japan.
