I had planned on doing a funny post today, but somehow it doesn’t seem like today is a good day to laugh. Many people in Oklahoma are hurting after a day of tragedy and devastation yesterday. Lives and property were lost and people have been left with nothing but the clothes on their backs. My cousin in Joplin, Missouri is in that very situation as well. Oklahoma and Missouri are certainly stunned over the past few days of tornadic events. Be sure and go online to find the various organizations which are gathering up items and money for the victims of the tornadoes of late. Two organizations that are already on site are the American Red Cross and The Salvation Army If you feel led, please give what you can to help out. And pray. These are our neighbors and fellow Americans. We help each other. That’s what America is about. I’ll save the humor for tomorrow. |

These days have been dreadful for so many people. I’m glad you are okay. I guess because I was in Joplin many times as a child visiting my grandparents, it has always seemed like one of those places that would never change. Of course, that’s not true, but the changes brought about by the tornado are sad to see and our hearts are with all the people affected, which is probably about everyone, one way or another.
So true, Beth
