10things to learn from japan


10 things to learn frm 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 didn’t fall.
4. THE GRACE-People bought only what they needed for the present, so every body 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 silly reporters. Only calm reportage.
10. THE CONSCIENCE-When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the shelves and left quietly.
