I give thanks that all is well in New Orleans, Louisiana, Florida, Texas, and thereabouts. Everybody is calm, orderly, helpful, and courteous. Nobody is looting, or hurting, or sexually violating people. Nobody is going to use guns or other weapons. Everybody is being taken care of with enough food, water, childcare, diapers and food for babies and small tots. All the dead bodies are being properly buried or otherwise taken care of, in order to promote health and prevent disease. Yes, that includes household pets. All the dogs, cats, and other pets, stray or not, are being taken care of. There is more than sufficient money, time, energy, wisdom, and helpful, brave, hard-working people working to aid everybody affected by this. Somehow we're going to get the Federal Government to be much more helpful! Everybody is learning from this not to neglect our own backyard in order to tell other gardeners worldwide where to plant their tomatoes and cucumbers!
The above is a prayer and positive affirmation composed by me. We give thanks to God. So be it! All is well.
