Jaime want to ask if you have found that the people around you dispite the suffering and loss if you find that there is more ..others helping others?
I found that after the 3 hurricanes and well usualy after any kind of devistation, natural dissaster people seem to pull together and reach out and help . the most peacefull time I have ever experienced in my life was after the hurricanes when the town or most of it was without power for 1-2 weeks.
sometimes the after math is in a way ...peace and bonds people together brings them closer and makes the differences disappear even if just for an hour.

My prayers are with all those affected by the fires, and with you .
Low pain wishes.

I LOVED YOUR POEM just tryin to cheer ya up my friend .
PEACE
