Remember our Ancestors
"People had this crucial knowledge, but they were busy with their lives and jobs, and many forgot," said Yotaru Hatamura, a scholar who has studied the tablets.
One stone marker warned of the danger in the coastal city of Kesennuma: "Always be prepared for unexpected tsunamis. Choose life over your possessions and valuables."
This is why the Native Americans say to remember ones ancestors.
"High dwellings are the peace and harmony of our descendants," the stone slab reads. "Remember the calamity of the great tsunamis. Do not build any homes below this point."
See the whole story at the link above and I believe this was very good advice if only everybody had remembered the Stones.

Rain upon the Rooftop
Rain upon the Roof top
Echo's in my mind
Summer days of plenty
Winter snows falling heavy
Rain upon the Roof top
Crackling fire beneath
Wraps the Heart
In harmony once upon a time...

Radiation Concerns-Natural Iodine
"You are still breathing this into your lungs, and there is passive absorption in the skin, eyes and mouth and we really do not know what long-term impact that would have," Lee told Reuters by telephone.
Around eight hours after the explosions, the U.N. weather agency said winds were dispersing radioactive material over the Pacific Ocean, away from Japan and other Asian countries.
and....
"Radioactive material will reach Tokyo but it is not harmful to human bodies because it will be dissipated by the time it gets to Tokyo," said Koji Yamazaki, professor at Hokkaido University graduate school of environmental science.
"If the wind gets stronger, it means the material flies faster but it will be even more dispersed in the air."
In other words and in my words...they do not know really what harm this disaster will produce in the long run...
Radiation does occur naturally and we are exposed to its effects daily but the human body can only take so much and once the limit within the body is reached the immune system can not keep up and the body begins to break down.
With this in mind, it stands to reason to prevent damage to the body from over-exposure to radiation a person should boost the immune system with extra radiation fighting foods and herbs.
Here's a list of herbs and foods I found that may help us protect ourselves against any damage in the long run...which may be many years from now...
Here is a forum that explains what radiation sickness is and there is a great discussion going on about cures.
Great Advice and explanation here too:
FDA site about Radiation:
Godspeed everyone !
Garlic
Potassium Iodide...natural replacement = Bananas
Kelp is a natural KI source.The iodide content can range
from 89 g to 8165 mcg/g in Asian varieties, making prepared foods content difficult to estimate. Eating 3-5 grams of most dried, unrinsed seaweeds will provide the 100-150 micrograms iodide recommended daily allowance.
Side effects of Iodide Treatments: IMPORTANT!!
Potential Acute Health Effects: Slightly hazardous in case of skin contact (corrosive, irritant), of eye contact (irritant,
corrosive), of ingestion.
Potential Chronic Health Effects:
CARCINOGENIC EFFECTS: Not available.
MUTAGENIC EFFECTS:
Mutagenic for mammalian somatic cells. [Potassium
Iodide].
TERATOGENIC EFFECTS: Not available.
DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: Classified Reproductive system/toxin/
female, Development toxin [POSSIBLE] [Potassium Iodide].
The substance may be toxic to blood, skin, eyes, thyroid.
Repeated or prolonged exposure to the substance can produce target organs damage.

Comes The Dawn
After a while you learn the subtle difference
Between holding a hand and chaining a soul
And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning
And company doesn't mean security
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
And presents aren't promises
And you begin to accept your defests
With your head up and your eyes open
With the grace of a woman,not the frief of a child,
And you learn to build all you roads on today
Because tomorrow's ground is to uncertain for plans
And futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight
After a while you learn
That even sunshine burns if you get to much
So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul
Instead of waiting for somebody to bring you flowrs.
And you learn that you really can endure
That you really are strong
And you really do have worth
And you learn and learn
With every goodbye you learn....

I still carry the above poem with me, as I have for many years
As I go about laying down the stepping stones through life's gardens.

The World of the Enchanted Flower, The 5th Direction
Time is man made. Time exists because a person paid attention to how long a day was or how much they could get done in a day. People are the only living beings who have time.
Other living beings exists in a rhythm of rest and motion some with patterns based on dark or light but none by a clock on the wall except us.
We too, are the only ones who have been able to write and leave a tale of our existence for others to learn of. No other living being can leave behind a written word or photographs like us, the other living beings leave only frozen fossil foot prints in the sand.
Sharing thoughts and teachings from Magdala
"In this beautiful world where the true human being have always been, all is bonding into one, for it is the one that unfolded, the one that understands where you have always been, for you are being integrated into a higher version of your own self. There is one single language, that resides in the outside as well in the inside, for communication happens in a very direct form, there is no filters that create a process, it is a communication that is unfolding instantaneously, and is happening with everything that exist, at the same time, for time equals zero, love is the energy that connects in the purity of the essence, and the connection is the way of living." read more at my friend's site at link above.
