today.

today, march 11/11 would have been auntie dia's 87th birthday.  i miss her.  i think of her often and am inspired by her.

today i got some terrible news.  one of my students from egypt who i was very close to is ill.  it's really bad.  she is in a coma.  and they aren't sure if she'll make it.  something about red blood cells...?  she is 7 years old.  she shouldn't be going through this.  neither should her parents.  

today the world got some terrible news.  the earthquake and tsunami in japan have literally shaken us all up.  millions of people are suffering.  

what a world we live in.  please pray from salma and her family.  i know that everyone is thinking of all the people in japan, but please save some positive energy for salma.  i'm sure it will make her stronger. 

today.  not a great day.  let's hope for a brighter tomorrow.
