We can look at tragedy...

...perhaps, in this way.



And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed,

and all flesh shall see it together;

for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it. (Isaiah 40:5)

WE may not understand why,

but there is a reason for everything that happens

on this great planet.

Dry Time....

Let us ALL take some moments to pray for those in Japan.

Too many have lost everything, including their lives.

Below are two photos I took some 31 or so years ago. I haven't seen them as 'positives', nor enlarged, until I worked on them this morning.

They reminded me that superb, dry weather is so necessary for northeastern Japan over the next several weeks.

Some Drying Grasses, 1980

Most unfortunately, northeastern Japan
will not be seeing
any sort of drying for some time.

My Dried Rose, 1980

May the Japanese people continue to maintain strength and fortitude, as they look forward to 'a dry time', as these old photos of mine represent.
