It is hard to get my mind around the fact that these townships have been virtually wiped out. I feel the most for all those who have lost loved ones in the fires. It is awful when someone you know dies suddenly like that.
People have also lost their houses and everything they own in the fires and it is just amazing to read about the community spirit, how everyone comes together to support them, by giving money and material gifts to the victims.
Well, what else can I say? It is such a huge tragedy and I am lost for words. But I am really feeling for all those involved or affected in some way.
