10 things to learn from Japan by _rOcK_ 2011/04/18 16:29
Dear All,
Please read the following .....
10 things to learn from Japan
1. THE CALM
Not a single visual of chest-beating or wild grief. Sorrow itself has been elevated.
2. THE DIGNITY
Disciplined queues for water and groceries. Not a rough word or a crude gesture.
3. THE ABILITY
The incredible architects, for instance. Buildings swayed but didnt fall.
4. THE GRACE
People bought only what they needed for the present, so everybody could get something.
5. THE ORDER
No looting in shops. No honking and no overtaking on the roads. Just understanding.
6. THE SACRIFICE
Fifty workers stayed back to pump sea water in the N-reactors. How will they ever be repaid?
7. THE TENDERNESS
Restaurants cut prices. An unguarded ATM is left alone. The strong cared for the weak.
8. THE TRAINING
The old and the children, everyone knew
exactly what to do. And they did just that.
9. THE MEDIA
They showed magnificent restraint in the bulletins. No sensationalizing. Only calm reportage.
10. THE CONSCIENCE
When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the shelves and left quietly
This makes the nation great.
Thanks & Best Regards

I'snt it so sad that people (if you can call them that) from other parts of the world, actually go there, to loot rob and steal from these hard-hit victims!? And this is true. I've read intelligence reports of syndicates doing exactly this!
