Preciousness of Life





Yesterday, in the wee hours of the night I went to the Emergency ward with my mum and I thought... 


こんなことが起こると気づくんだ、この世に一番大事なものは命だってこと。別に理由がないこそ、命の大切さじゃない?理由がなくてもいい、特に何の為じゃなくてもいい、人生で何も果たせなくてもいいんだ。。。ただ何よりも大切で、愛しいんだ。


Translation (somehow I feel that I am able to phrase this better in Japanese than in English =/ ):


It is only when such things happen then you realize that the most important thing in this world is life. Isn't the fact that there isn't any particular purpose for life that makes it precious? It's ok if there isn't a reason or purpose, or even nothing is accomplished with that life...it is just more precious and dear than anything else.


She is waiting for further results, but she is all right now and I hope she stays this way.

ShuFen,

My prayers are for your mum, and I trust the doctors will be able to treat her successfully.

My wife is home after successfull surgery for removal of the gall bladder and she will be away from normal activities and work for about three weeks.

Many continue to suffer in Japan from after effects of the earthquake and tsunami.
