Editing. Praying. Writing. Reflecting. Gratitude.

Today at 2:46PM it was exactly two years since the March 11, 2011 disaster.

A couple of months ago, I had wondered how I would spend the day.  Coincidentally, today turned out to be the last day I would be editing my documentary "A2" (WEBSITE), about the children living in Fukushima.  I have just now handed the film over to the post-production team in the UK.

It's bittersweet; I suppose like sending a child off to university.

I am honoured that Discovery News' March 11 anniversary coverage includes my guest blog (HERE), the 10th one I have written for Discovery since the earthquake struck two years ago, and it is also linked to the short documentary I compiled for today (HERE).

And today began with the humbling news that "A2" has been accepted in a competitive film festival in Europe in June.

Editing.  Praying.  Writing.  Reflecting.  Gratitude.
