Earthquake: Ai Otsuka is safe and sound!

It's a truly difficult time for all Japanese people. As we all know, there has been a terrible earthquake and tsunami which took thousands of lives. Many people are still unaccounted for, if not dead. All the world is watching Japan struggling with the catastrophe, wishing all the Japanese lots of strength and hope in surviving the situation.

Many fans have been worried about their idols, but fortunately all of them are fine. So is Ai Otsuka and her husband Su - it's been officially confirmed, therefore there's no need to worry about them (sources: 1 | 2).

I'm very happy that Ai is safe and sound, but what still concerns me is the leak of Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant, which is located about 240 km from Tokyo. I don't know for sure where is Ai at the moment (there are rumors that she's in Osaka) and where she was when the leak occured, but I hope she hasn't been exposed to the radiation :( She's pregnant, so the risk doesn't concern only her, but also her baby. Obviously, radiation has a highly detrimental influence on unborn babies. So, I'm still worried and I hope Ai has a safe place to hide herself to wait safely until the danger is over.

My dear Readers - no matter what religious community you belong to (if at all), let's unite in prayer for all those who lost their lives in the recent disaster, who lost their relatives or beloved ones, who are left alone without help or are still waiting for it, who haven't got any place to live... Please, pray with me. Thank you.

May HOPE be with us all.

For all seeking comfort in this saddening situation:
