Shit

Did everyone watch the news?
About the earthquake in L'Aquila??
Remember that town? That's where I was supposed to be. Remember the job in Italy I was offered and was thinking about taking?
That was there...

Nature is humbling. We take and we take, and we destroy and we burn, and we cut and we tear down and we suck the life out of this planet that has been so kind as to take us in and let us live on its back.
And every once in a while it decides to show us who's the real boss. And then we talk about "Nature's wrath" and lament lives lost and properties destroyed.
I hope we learn. We learn and respect. We respect and learn the planet. We learn the planet and fear its powers. We fear its powers and protect ourselves. We protect ourselves and live in harmony. Live in harmony with nature.
Only through respect we can do that, and we, the human race, are still, after millions of years on this planet, so far from it.
