Past Due

In spite of how hard I work to remain optimistic and upbeat in my everyday life, I am long overdue in touching on the tragic events that have happened to, and won't seem to let loosen their grip on, Japan. Thoughts and prayers are of course helpful to us thinking them, but a donation made to the rescue efforts can do infinitely more good. I realize money can be a scarce commodity, but if you have anything to spare, these victims in Japan could certainly use our help. Natural disasters seem to be relentless of late, all around the world. We have to be there for each other, in whatever capacity we can, to help in picking up the pieces and trying to grasp onto whatever hope remains.
