FEBRUARY 7TH 2009



Here are pictures I took of the sky over the southern suburbs of Melbourne on February 7th - the day of the bushfires.....the day from Hell. Who knew then what was taking place under this same sky only miles away - the extent of the death & devastation. My thoughts & prayers are with all those effected during this time of trial.
& I pray for rain.

Yes please rain, please.

I just cried and cried this afternoon listening to the devastating stories, absolutely heartbreaking.

Strength & courage to all.

It has been incredible to see the coming together of Australians through tbis time.

The blogs I read, the Etsy stores I follow donating all proceeds to Red Cross, one radio station raising almost 2 million dollars today, the fire fighters, the ambulance and emergency workers dedication and our own PM's words were powerful, "we will pull through this, we will pull through this as stronger Australians" - it is beautiful to see this wonderful camaraderie through such a nightmare situation and truly reminds me of the Australian spirit of helping out your mates.

hows it going
i have checked blogs for a couple of months at least
you seem to be have some mental health issues still
i thought it was going to be all cleared up when you were diagnosed with that illness (cant remember what it was)
my life is going pretty well - to be honest a bit of anguish tonight as i am home alone
otherwise theravada buddhism is going great - i love it
