shaken

just yesterday my best friend had remarked, "isn't it weird how one day everything is fine and dandy and then boom! everything's a mess?"

those words couldn't have felt any more valid than they did this morning.  i switched on the news only to be stunned by the image i saw on the screen: ominous, murky tsunami waves rapidly moving a mile inland from japan's coastline, enveloping everything in sight, the result of a massive 8.9 earthquake that rocked the country overnight (our time).

strictly a coincidence, but i immediately thought of her words from the day before and how truthful they now sounded.

funny how that works, isn't it?
