In response to grammatoall (forgot to quote you): Not just weather getting better, but people believe the world will right itself again, the economy will get better, people's attitudes will improve, optimism will hedge out pessism, crime rates should drop, death rate should drop a bit, relationships will become stronger, with friends, family and your sig other. People's faith will become stronger, morals and ethics higher. They say that overall the planet will be a nicer place to live again, right now we are in the end of the downward swing, we are at the bottom. Of course not all believe in that stuff, Im not even sure if I do. I just need to hold out hope that things will get better all around, the destruction, devastation and feeling of helplessness by so many all over the planet makes me sad. I can't imagine that it will get worse than this. |

I totally agree V! Things are getting REALLY crazy....and not to mention scary :eek: I tell you, these hurricanes are just out there waiting in line! We are right by ya girl, and we've got to really keep an eye on Ike :eek: I hope it doesn't come here, but then again, I don't want ANYONE getting hit by it :( |

It is scary how weird the weather has been. :( Like Layla 17 said, we had a thunderstorm here in PA this morning that @ 9:30 a.m. it looked like it was 9:30 p.m. outside, it was that dark. Lots of rain, lightening. And V, yes it does seem like we've had much more tornado warnings than normal in PA this year. Scares me cause we don't have a basement. Everyone in the possible path of Hurricane Ike, please take care.... It now looks like it could hit Central Texas. |
It's simply called Global Warming! We have polluted our earth, punching holes in the ozone layer and if things are not cleaned up immediately, the weather and everything else (the domino affect) will only get worse. |
I agree with both of those things, I think we are destroying the earth. I've changed to reusable grocery bags this year and only put the brown paper lunch bags in my small trash cans. I try to compost and recycle! Be careful Villette, I thought I heard it was coming to Houston! We had Tornado warnings once or twice a week this past spring. and now it feels like fall here! Very strange and bizarre! Praying for you all in Texas and the gulf coast! |

i think i suffer from post traumatic stress disorder... you see, my hometown (where i was living at the time) Slidell, LA, was hit hard by Katrina.. i was a junior in high school (Salmen High) and VERY involved. my house LITERALLY was ONE INCH from flooding. my neighbors, on the other hand, werent so lucky. my school which was not but like 10 blocks from my house flooded nine feet. and even though we didnt get hit by the flooding, we got looted. and i know that my house didnt get flooding and that i shouldnt STILL be feeling these feelings, but..... i lived there.... i saw it everyday. the smell is something i will never foreget. the students that did return went to night school at another high school and then switched to a junior high school in the day time. til this day i cry about it. my old high school still isnt rebuilt and wont be in the process until 2011. now that Gustav passed by.. some people still dont have power. my school was delayed a whole week. it definatly brought back some feelings. i have pictures if anybody would like to see... thanks for letting me vent :) |

You are not mandated to FEEL a certain way because you did not lose your house or whatnot, you feel how you feel and its OK to feel that way. Maybe when the time is right you can move away from your area and try to start over somewhere else in the country where you feel may bring you more peace of mind regarding the weather and the bad memories you have. Personally I think you are a Katrina survivor and thriver, I admire you! :) |
