Bob ArmendarizWhat, The Earth Is Moving
Just here in the southwest we received glimpses of spring possibly arriving, we inherited the world as it is. Winter games in Vancouver, they wanted snow! and at least a foot of snow fell in the eastern part of the US in 2 different storms in a week and then came the 8.8 earthquake in Chile.
Chile, that is a modern, stable country with strong government. At first the newscast impressed us with video of buildings that had survived the quake because of new technology. Technology that came about from many educators doing precise studies on earthquakes. Technology that was not present in Haiti, therefore we all thought, Chile should rebound more quickly. Well, perhaps not.
Now, the news we are getting is getting worse. Some coastal towns were almost obliterated, the quake, then the surprise that in the beginning no one was talking about, the tsunami that on the first day was threating all from the California shore to Hawaii, and it seems no one was checking on the small towns in Chile, the tsunami hit the region very hard. Now we are hearing familiar statements “survivors are left without power, water and food. There are looting, lots of digging for survivors; I guess Mother Nature has out scored us again.
Every now and then, we are reminded that there will be challenges in our lifetime…enjoy the pleasant ones.
