Amid disaster, Japan's societal mores remain strong

Being one of the worst disasters the World has ever witnessed, you would expect people panicing for food and other resources. But in Japan, people are calm and waiting hours in lines just to receive a couple beverages and food without any complaints. 

Shichigo Elementary School in Sendai is now home to hundreds of tsunami victims. In a third-floor classroom, families have self-organized themselves on cardboard boxes and blankets. No one family has a larger space than the other, just as you see at any average family festival. Shoes are not allowed on the blankets in order to maintain sanitary conditions. Food is shared as equally as possible, even if one person eats or drinks a little less in order for everyone to have some sustenance.

Its amazing to see how organized this country is and how sympathetic these people are being with one another. Everyone there is getting along even with the horrible conditions of being homeless and having nothing anymore.
