It's 3 years since March 11th. Again there were prayers held at the Hachiman Shrine in Kamakura with the leaders of different religions - Shinto,Buddhism,Christian - coming together. It's become a bit of a media circus so there were lots of clicking sounds from cameras which was extremely off-putting but still the one minute of silence held at 14:46 is the saddest one minute of the year in Japan.

A friend just posted this on Facebook. A musician's nightmare.
Ruining a beautiful solo and killing a concerto! Hands down to Mr. Zacharias's recovery though. It's as if nothing had touched him!
