I'm sure by now you've heard about what has happened in Japan, if not an 8.9 magnitude earthquake hit and caused a tsunami, over four meters high to hit causing damage I have only seen on the news a handful of times.
When I woke up today and first started watching coverage, the death toll was 16, it is now in the thousands.
So many people have lost loved ones, homes, life savings, so much they have worked for is just gone.
I couldn't help but put myself in the situation in my mind, or at least tried to, cause no matter what you could never really know what it's like.
But we can help, and I encourage you to and to help spread the word.

Just think, this is the fifth largest earthquake since the 1900's is what they're saying. Bottom line, you just never know. I pray that we are never in the situation looking for help, but am glad we are able to, so please do.
Until next time, keep it rockin'
