Johnny Has His Say On Japan




What a horrifying nightmare Japan had to go through. An earthquake at the magnitude of 8.9! That is one of the largest ever recorded in history! Then to top it all off, the world watched in horror as the Tsunami came ashore and wiped out everything in it's path! The death tolls are in the thousands and climbing higher each day with many more missing and still not recovered.

Japan was the only nation in history to suffer two atomic bombs being dropped on it in World War II and leaving 340,000 people dead. Yet through all of this, Japan managed to build itself up again and become one of the most productive nations the world has ever seen. I have always admired how they discipline their children at a very young age and train them up to be the most intelligent business people in the world. They test them early on and then determine where their skills would best fit and give them the best education and training the world can offer. This is why they grow up to be experts in whatever field they enter. The same cannot be said about other nations including the United States.

Japan has contributed so much to the world and now they have to once again suffer devastation that has not only killed thousands but threatens to destroy their nation with a possible nuclear meltdown.

However, unlike other nations who beg the United States and it's allied forces to come help them rebuild, Japan is getting up and will get back up on their feet whether others help or not! Don’t get me wrong. I am positive Japan appreciates the Americans, the Aussies, and others who are rushing in to help rescue people, help the injured and help rebuild Japan in whatever way they can, but they will not sit on their rear ends like some other nations have waiting for a handout. They are already back to work doing what needs to be done to accomplish their goals. That is one reason why they are the most productive intelligent people in the world.

You see the Japanese are a proud people. I admire them. They have honor. It’s like “Hey we appreciate your help, but we are getting the job done whether you are on board or not.” They have wise sayings which they not only say but practice what they say. A Japanese proverb says, “Fall down seven times, get up eight.” You see they have been knocked down many times but they always get back up again. The world can learn from that.

God Bless Japan!
