It is now, but the nightmare also will end, and things will get better. In fact, they may grow better very quickly, though it appears at this point that we are seeing the slow version of recovery.
But recover we will. I am certain of this; history shows that people have weathered terrible occurrences and the most important thing is to continue to put one foot in front of another --- just the fact of any progress is more important than how fast it occurs initially. Once we get a bit of traction, things will look a lot better.
Thanks for encouraging words snowsislander. I got up today at 3am, after all the coverage yesterday, there was no way I could sleep. I pray it occurs sooner than later.
