The day felt warm for a change. Temperatures were above freezing for most of the day. My outing was to the store to pick up three items at the drug store. I didn't turn on the computer at all until the evening for a visit with a dear friend. I didn't really miss it. Perhaps it is good to take a break from some of the screen time.
I was away from the news for most of the day, too. So, when I heard about the massive earthquake in Turkiye and Syria. The original quake seems to have been a magnitued 7.8 with many after shocks ranging from 4.0 to 7.5. Thousands are confirmed dead and the rescue and recovery operations have just begun. I immediatly thought the many families in town from Syria -- they likely have family and friends in the region. The local choclate company has partnered with the Red Cross, with all proceeds from select products going to the relief fund. It is heart wrenching to see the devastation and people outside in the cold winter air.
The selection today was chosen for its title and the rather unsettling nature of this instrumenta. It ends abruptly since on the album this ran into the next track without a pause. Keep safe. Enjoy!
