Thank you for your concern, prayers, and warm messages regarding the Japanese triple disaster situation still under progress as I write this message. On behalf of the Japanese IPrA members, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude for the support offered to Japan by international communities.
It is certainly under circumstances like this that we are reminded strongly of the power of words and the importance of connecting and communicating. Messages reaching Japan from around the world have been warming our hearts, encouraging us, and giving us the hope and energy to stand up and take the next step.
