No grand celebrations this year.
Not when there are hundreds of thousands of people trying so hard to grapple with the aftermath of the tsunami.


The dilemma of a mother who had to let go either one of her sons.
Otherwise both would just perish together.
And so she made the painful decision of releasing her elder 5-yr old.
Heartbreaking, indeed.
Fortunately luck was on her elder son's side and he managed to grab hold of sth to stay afloat.

But, how this decision just sucked. For the mother, that is.
