Stunned

5.8 magnitude

6.0 magnitude

Numerous other aftershocks.

Some injuries.

Stunned is the mild version.

I'm gutted. We all are.

I'm not home in Christchurch. Home is much the same. Stuff tossed around. No breakages for me. A question mark over the sewer.

I'm one of the fortunate ones.

We'll clean up the mess. Rise again. Nearly 18 months on it's what we do.

Time after time. Quake after quake.

Peace.

Please.
