Japan is very dear to my heart, and my thoughts go out to all in the country who are dealing with the earthquake and tsunami today. I hope all of my friends who are out there right now are safe.

気を付けてください

For those who don’t know, an earthquake of magnitude 8.9 has hit Japan causing a huge tsunami to devastate the NE coastline. Only 6 earthquakes in history have been worse in magnitude than the one that hit Japan today.
