Speaking of Japan and earthquakes, I've experienced one almost on a monthly basis when I was living there. It seemed "natural" for buildings to exist one day and not the next -- there's always some sort of construction program going on in various parts of towns. There's a kind of transient-philosophical attitude amongst the people--that nothing lasts forever and the only permanence is change. The first time I experienced a tremor, I remembered seeing how calm everyone was during the event. Mind you, it was a minor tremor. But I was surprised by the casual nature everyone took, which helped me calm myself and go about my day.
