Well, we can just pray right now. I feel like crying, and I really don't cry much.

All these people. I was listening to a story today on KFI about a family who lost their home in the Malibu fires in 93. The toddler couldn't understand it, and carried the box of legos that was in the car everywhere he went, because he was terrified of losing the last thing he had left.

There are going to be alot of people needing grief therapy, some for years. Pets are being left behind, wedding photos, family heirlooms. It's just stunning.

Pets are being left behind

Sorry, I can't imagine doing that. If I have any warning at all, the cats are in the car with the kid. Anything else is replaceable.

I agree with you and share your sentiments.

I'd like to have someone with strong arms hold me so I could break down and cry.
