Another Word From Our Sponcer…some of it..not so good.
Nobody Knows
It’s the age-old question: If there is a God, why does he let such horrible things happen to innocent people? Take Joplin, Missouri…fifteen minutes was all it took for a tornado to kill over a hundred (and counting) people, and destroy most of the town. (see first pictures) And the weather is not finished. We have been warned, here in Missouri to expect more of the same.
Okay, God has nothing to do with the weather…but you can’t help but feel your heart go into your chest when you see the pictures. You’re first thought is: Are we next?
Today, my husband and I had planned to see the new “Pirates of the Caribbean” at the local mall. On the way over, it was pouring buckets…and as I looked up into the sky and saw the circles of clouds twirling, and watched newly planted young trees bend almost to the ground from the force of the wind, I keep thinking…”This is NOT typical. ” By the time we got to the Mall, electric for over 46,000 people had been knocked out. So much for the movie.
As I was relaxing on the front porch with the neighbors, waiting for the electric to come back on, we talked about the how the weather had been so strange. The cicada’s were already coming in mass. We had…no answers.
So that’s why I’m staying off politics tonight. Most of us know, that many of the people suffering in the floods and tornadoes will forever suffer, some will never recover. And that’s why, I’m posting some beauty after the beast. (In the PLANTS!) Here are some of my favorite pictures taken by my favorite people. I wish I could say that beautifu waterfall is in my backyard…but…give me a few more downpours here, and it will be. (Thanks to Pattie and Mona)
