For children to be born

I am living in Tokyo area. Today, still we had two relatively large earthquakes.
Since we lost 25% of electric power capacity, the number of the commute train is drastically reduced. Elevators in every building and public space are off, my office turns off the lights in daytime, so the places are dim in the building. To save the electricity, tens of thousands of households are suffering 3 hour long planned blackouts everyday. It's still cold out there, so blackouts from 6:00pm until 9:00pm really gives huge impact to our daily life.

TV media is broadcasting the elderly people dying in hospitals in Tohoku area, because they don't have enough medicines. Under these circumstances, TV showed one old gentleman looking for his missing wife at last got caught pneumonia, and were brought to hospital by helicopter. We know that we need to deliver water, food, medicines for refugees in each camp, but not have been achieved because roads to more than thousand of camps widely spread for 400km are totally collapsed. So those stuffs have been piled up somewhere on the way, and never arrived to the people in need.


At Fukushima power plant, two workers in the facility are severely injured from the dose of radiation, while they were trying to install electric power cable in the reactor to get back control system up and running. They were immediately taken away to the hospial by ambulance.

This is a huge disaster.

I am just wondering what we can learn from this disaster and make this painful experience useful for future. Otherwise,,,,,

It's too sad.


This is the song came out about 30 years ago. I didn't like that much when I listened at first time.
But now, this really sinks in.
