A Day To Celebrate

Yesterday was my cousin’s wedding. The photo taken was after the wedding dinner at the ballroom reception. Not everybody in the family was in the photo as quite a number of them were busy taking care of babies. A day to celebrate? Yes indeed.

But more than just to celebrate a day of people getting married, it was also a day to celebrate knowing that my uncle and his wife and daughter were not in Japan. The earthquake and tsunami in Japan was disastrous. They were here for my cousin’s wedding dinner. Unfortunately for my Japanese aunt's relatives over there,  there was a lost of contact. Nobody is quite sure of what’s going on at the moment. Certainly that is not something to celebrate.

Just stop and ponder for a moment. I think there is so much thing for me to write that I think I should probably do it some other time. All I can say at the moment is, expect more catastrophe to come in these last days…
