Did someone MUTE the world?

It seems like the world has been muted since Katrina hit, somehow colors don't look as brilliant as before nor does excitement come as easy. My heart hurts for my state, for these people who have lost so much....i don't know how to feel but I feel. The world is going on around me, helping hands are so near, but still I am sad to watch the pain and devastation. I am torn between jumping into helping yet feeling the weight of the tragedy because it is in my backyard. Thank you for praying.

Katrina...

I don't think Katrina will be a popular girls name for the next couple decades...but I wanted to update you guys, because many have asked.....my family is safe, there has been so much going on we are all overwhelmed. My aunt Jinx lost her house, and we lost our favorite family camp, and my parents had a couple of trees fall but miraculously their house came out okay! Mike (my stepdad will be relocated to Houston, and mom will probably rent a place so that she can go to work. We lost some family friends and still are unsure of everything for the future. Please pray for all of the victims of Katrina.
