Delicate balance...

I was watching a program on volcanoes. Looking at the magma and lava pouring out of the earth's darkest inner most regions got me dumbfounded. As always thoughts soared to all other natural disasters possible...the earth quakes, tsunamis, hurricanes and what not.

Anything is possible and the very existence of every human being is so dependent on so many natural and man made un reliable factors. hanging on such a delicate balance over inferno, we are so hung up on our attitudes!!! Gosh I cannot believe that. Seriously, life is as always I say, sooo ephemeral. Anything can happen any moment. The San Bruno gas explosion, who expected that? The Tsunami that washed aways thousands of people with no warning...the earth quakes that mutilated and killed thousands...not to mention the everyday road accidents, health issues....I shudder.

Well I am not trying to be so gloomy and negative. On the contrary. I am trying to understand the very value of our existence and be thankful for the life. Thankful in a way we value every other human being and treat fairly and not hurt...
