Wonder

The last day of the month. Already?

Seeing all this stuff from Hurricane Katrina on TV, I can say that I can't imagine what it'd be like to see all of your city flood away, like those who are in New Orleans or to see all of the coast wiped-away, like along the Mississippi and Alabama coasts. What would it be like to know that you evacuated and that you don't know what to do for housing for the next 4 or 6 months or a year?

What has happened to this large metro area? They say 1 million people are displaced. Has a natural disaster like this ever happened? What is the mood there in New Orleans, Mississippi and Alabama? What would it be like to know that you can't go back. Your house is probably never going to be seen in the way you left it.

I can imagine what is going through the minds of those who are looting, but what keeps them there? Are you planning on making it through the whole time there in NO?

For those who know people in N.O., my mind, heart, and prayers are there with you. Until you find out the safety of your loved-ones, please keep safe, keep calm as much as possible, and I hope you get into contact with them.
