Watching it on TV here in NC is hard to wrap my head around. I can’t even imagine. It is sickening and heartbreaking. I’m glad you, my other family and friends, are OK. LA continues to stay in my thoughts and prayers. It will take a lot of effort, standing shoulder to shoulder, to clean up and rebuild. But, you will 🙏❤️

Thank you for relating, into words what most everyone is feeling, the utter devastation. What I appreciate most about your essay is, it is only a few paragraphs put into words what we feel. Let your writing sink in and melt into a feeling of gratitude that we have us even if we don’t have things.
