Today (or rather late last night) an 8.9 earthquake in Japan which caused a major tsunami on the east coast of Japan. The after effects have hit Hawaii, Alaska, and is heading toward California/Oregon. The power is out in many places, the airports are closed so they can't leave, and hundreds of people are missing.
I really believe that everybody will have some major thing they will struggle with (most of us will have many struggles) in their lives. These people have to struggle with a huge natural disaster and everything that comes with it. They have to struggle with the loss of their homes, injuries, deaths of loved ones, and so much more that I couldn't even imagine. It makes me think that my struggles with trying to conceive are so much more bearable. Yes, it is hard but I know that everybody I love is safe. I am sitting in my house right now with power, water, and food. When something as tragic as this tsunami/earthquake happens, it forces me to put my problems into perspective. I am so blessed. I am just keeping a prayerful heart for those people who have been directly affected from this disaster.
