Huge Beirut explosion shatters windows across Lebanese capital

By -


Beirut, Lebanon A massive explosion ripped through the Lebanese capital Beirut on Tuesday, injuring many people and blowing out windows in buildings across the city.

The source of the explosion was initially believed to be a major fire at a warehouse for firecrackers near the port in Beirut, the state-run National News Agency reported.

The blast sent up a huge mushroom cloud-like shockwave and damaged buildings miles from the port, including the headquarters of former Prime Minister Saad Hariri and CNN's bureau in downtown Beirut.

A red cloud hung over the city in the wake of the explosion as firefighting teams rushed to the scene to try to put out the fire. Large numbers of people were wounded in the blast, authorities said, and footage from the scene captured the injured staggering through streets in the capital.

The country's health minister ordered all hospitals in the area to prepare to receive injuries.

The Glorified Hustle Culture

Secure the bag! Secure the bag! If you aren't securing you are snoozing! The burnout and grind culture all for securing the bag is alarming.  This glorification of working very long hours in hope of reaching one's professional goals while having a disregard for thier health is becoming increasingly in today's society.. This hustle culture is killing us. Secure the bag at the expense of your health.  You must be reaching for something higher and grinding for it. You must achieve and achieve and the best is ALWAYS yet to come. Someone told me, Nettie "I'll sleep when I'm dead".. Hmmm, how often do we STOP? Breathe please? I totally agree with Abraham Hicks. The purpose of life is joy. I think I see why monks and bhudists would rather focus on peace than chase dopamine (excitement and adventure) we are addicted to it. We define our lives by those few and far between highs and hate the "lows". We go through the process, not enjoying it, but enduring ...
