Our thoughts are with Japan

By Kelly Gibson | Published: March 15, 2011

We are watching as the information continues to come in about the tragedy in Japan. All of us are concerned about the situation there. When any one is suffering, we are all suffering together. Native Americans say this as a simple prayer: Mitakuye Oyasin.  Translated, this means “all my relations” or “we are all related.” It’s a petition on behalf of everyone and everything on Earth. From all of us at National Relief Charities, our thoughts and prayers are with Japan.
