    Although I know that not all under water earthquakes cause tsunamis, I was surprised this one didn’t, unless that status changed.

    There is no going back from this point on…as quakes are on the rise…and the result of those quakes will reveal itself in catastrophic ways. Stay positive in the minutes of your everyday…the encounters with family and friends…it may be all we have.
