Aftermath Of Hurricane Katrina

Contributed by BtrFlyDrms on Tuesday, 30th August 2005 @ 07:39:58 PM in AEST
Topic: Grief



This is NOT a poem but a PLEA.
No matter your faith,I ask to take a moment and pray with me.
WE are ALL family,WE are ALL ONE....ALL effected by Katrinas HIT and RUN.
To her it was all just land,sand and wood -to cower beneath her wrath and surcome.
Apperantly she doesnt know OUR history all to well.
WE do NOT RUN when we are HIT,WE do NOT Cower but STAND STRONG,WE do NOT surcome but RISE UP like the sun!
Lives have been lost,Others out of touch,survivors pulled by air to saftey,others by boat.
NO matter where you LIVE-we ALL have been touched,tears of worry,wonder and joy and disbelief.
No amount of words,prices,pictures can really tell a story when you are caught in the aftermath.
Everyone has a story,there are few moments in our lifetime that leave an impact that we carry in our hearts,minds and souls.
I am told that god doesnt give us more then we can handle,i'm still searching for the meaning of this.
SO much devistation,So much grief,So much seems lost but even a single seed rises up from beneath!
THIS is NOT a Poem but a PLEA.
Please take a moment and pray with me.
TO ALL THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY HURRICANE KATRINA~
KNOW THAT YOU ARE IN OUR THOUGHTS~
OUR HEARTS GO OUT TO YOU~
YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!
