Earthquake in India Today
Mom, before you call me halfway through the first paragraph, you need to know that I’m perfectly fine…
I experienced my first earthquake today. In a meeting on the 7th floor of the Times of India building, suddenly the room started swaying. The other guy and I just froze and looked at each other. We opened the office door to commotion in the bullpen of young people standing up from their desks, talking and even laughing about the earthquake.
We smiled nervously and scooted to the elevator which we immediately took to the ground floor.
It turns out that we were feeling the effects of a 5.8 magnitude earthquake originating in Afghanistan.
In the end there was no threat of danger, though certainly scary at a time when the world is on high alert.
