I've had a fear of tsunamis since I was a young girl. I'm not watching much coverage of the tragedy for that reason. The helplessness and hopelessness of being swept out to sea by a current of water that no one can stop is too horrifying. The ocean, like all of nature, is indifferent to our fear or suffering. It's so impersonal. Being the victim of a tsunami seems like the epitome of powerlessness.
