And, again tonight

One more quick thought before I head to bed.

I was born in '32, grew up and remember WWII well. I saw all the newsreel footage of damage in England during the "Blitz." Scenes of fires, firemen streaming water on the flames, cities just demolished. I often wondered how it felt to live like that. Spending the night in a shelter, not knowing if your home would be standing in the morning, if you would lose friends, how much damage there would be.

Now, every morning I watch the news, here in the USA, damage, heavy damage, people killed homes destroyed, buildings destroyed, all by weather, every day. Some of in tonight is very close.

We are not being bombed, but, a little trepidation when going to bed each night, and, a little prayer ... about, a safe night ...
