Dark cloud over Japan

I have no words to say what I feel...
I can't take my brushes to paint miniature portraits and fashion plates, even if I know that could make me feel likely in another world.
A world where there is no nuclear threatening, no destructive earthquake nor fatal tsunami...
A world where kids are not crying in desolate streets, looking for their parents, their home...
I am sure that japanese people will stand up and fight, but the terrible tragedy they are living now makes me feel so sad...
