It hurts - this ku and this disaster. We live on a fragile planet since milliards of years. We have to face up to this.

Thanks for you all. It's difficult to find proper words...

Words at all.

the homeless city ...

True Tikkis...i can't stand to see those...

moments when one feels death was better than life,
