AN EARTHQUAKE AND TSUNAMI HAS HIT THE CARRIBEAN

TSUNAMI AND EARTHQUAKE HIT THE CARIBBEAN

By: Derek Varsalona

A Tsunami and earthquake hit the Caribbean Islands over the weekend.  This is an infrequent occasion for the Caribbean climate.  I expect a Tsunami, which is essentially an earthquake in the ocean but an earthquake is uncommon on land in the Caribbean, but in this world anything is possible.

This just goes to show you that life is precious and things can happen in a split second.  There is no way to prepare for an earthquake.  Unlike people in California who are used to these situations, the people of the Caribbean are not used to it.  Earthquakes rarely ever happen in the Caribbean.

This just goes to show you that life is precious.  It reminds me to take one day at a time as you never know what tomorrow might bring.  As always comments accepted.
