My country is also within the Pacific Ring of Fire. In my city, the earth shook with 4.1 intensity. I am not going to lie, I am afraid for my city, my country. I am afraid for my life. But, as his Holiness, The Dalai Lama has said, if there is something you can do, then there is no need to worry. If there is nothing you can do, then there is no need to worry.
Agreed. Can't live my life in fear.
