I prolly should not be posting, I am on such a emotional roller coaster
last week as I searched for my father, saw the human carnage, all I could think of was him - now that he is safe, with me, I look back and am deeply struck and disturbed with how a small percentage of urbanites reacted and behaved at such a base level - for me, that is a huge eye opener - maybe it's like that in all societies
and yet
there are so many more people who care, who are proving this their finest moment - the people at crosspoint church, people volunteering, people working and putting together aid, trucks, food, cash donations, taking families in
home is where the heart is
yes
but to be honest, now the my crisis has passed, there was and always will be a little of my heart in n'awlins
so unusual, so unique
it was a city like that, it could grab a bit of your heart and not let go
I can't help but wonder what it will be like going forward..... |
