helen99Over 13,000 dead. Some sources said it was more like over 19,000 (there are a lot of missing). Luckily, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jolantru was somewhat away from the affected area and so was unharmed. We did a short bit of journeying last night to try to help some across. Many death images have been coming at me for the past week or so - including the "army of the dead" in the Return of the King", a dream my mom had about late friends and relatives, a workshop about the sacred ancestral dead that I attended, the sudden death of two of my mice, a couple of discussions about zombie movies, - and now this.
This earthquake was apparently so powerful (9.2?) it momentarily affected the Earth's rotation, causing us to wonder if shifting magnetics may be involved... In the event that I'm without a body (and I surely will be at some point sooner or later, preferably later, though if this keeps up, who knows...), I hope I can see plate tectonics and magnetic fields and stuff...

Germs are sometimes very good and not disease at all. Disease is defined to be a state in which germs put their own ends before the good of the host. Symbiosis (to me the ideal state) is when germs and host are in a dance of give and take so neither one suffers.
