Asia

It didn't care about nations. It didn't care about borders. It didn't care about conflict, race, religion, politics, or ideology. It was an equal opportunity killer. About the only good thing to possibly come out of all the death is the very fact that none of these things mattered. In the end it was only people without labels. How we respond to this as a species will be more important than any of these labels. In the end all humans must come together to help, morn, and begin the rebuilding process. How can anyone watch the news without sharing in the absolute devastation that nature has wrought upon these individuals caught up in the horror? Nature has a way of doing that. Just when we are becoming more separate, more divided, and ever more hateful, nature can, in one swift move, make all these differences seem very petty.
