I have been thinking about Katrina and what she did to the south a lot. I feel so bad for all of those people... but it's like the tsunami - the tragedy makes me sick, but I also feel so detached from it all... like it might as well be across the world from me. But it's not. I pray for these people whenever I think of them. I just hope it doesn't get as bad as people think it can. I wish I could do monetary donations, but I'm practically living in the negatives right now. And I don't have anything else to offer anyone besides my prayers, so that's what I am doing for the victims of Katrina. But I stumbled across this tonight, and I think it's really cool. I wish I was able to do this.
www.craigslist.org --->People offering housing for victims of Katrina
www.shareyourhome.org--->The same
The only bad part of this is: Who has internet access down there? But at least the offers are there!
God Bless You All

Dana, as much as you might think it's a bad thing for you to feel so detached from it, it's not. I wish I could feel that way. Since everything happened so close to me, I think it's really taken a toll on me. It's kind of like I'm in a mini-depression about it. I can't tell you how many times I've had to wipe away tears. And to top it all off, I'm scared. Mostly because that storm could have come over this way and party because there's been a huge influx of storm victims into Houston and I'm scared they'll start acting up like they did in New Orleans. And they're so close to my home.
But anyway, I have to get ready for school. Keep praying!
