Yesterday's 3 minutes of mourning was such a poetic contrast of events. The stillness and silence wasn't just a contrast to the devastation of the Sihuan Earthquake, but also to the joy and celebration that took place here in HK just 17 days earlier during the Olympic Torch Relay.

It's one of life's little ironies that two such extreme events could bind us all together. But also so fulfilling that no matter the situation, we will come together.
