Ah yes Hiroshima – time for me to learn about it

Monday’s moment of silence and prayer will be special for me. I am living in Calgary and have finally met a roommate from Japan who has called Hiroshima home. He’s 22 years of age and learning all about the Dance of Life outside of Japan.

Now that I have finally decided to learn more about him after seeing him sleeping on a living room couch for the last few weeks while waiting for his room to become available with the exit of a Mexican tenant, I have asked him to go through the ritual moment of prayer on Monday with him. I really don’t know what to expect, except that I’ll have to let my subconscious do all the work at sorting out the emotions, horror and Conscious knowledge of what happened that day. Nagasaki too. Truly horrific in my mind. Military wise, maybe I can understand the use of ending a war using nuclear weapons. But on civilians, I don’t have words for the Conscious use of them. Whether then or now – ever ! Anyways, the Database I’m working on will even things out.
