The wind blew. The rain fell. The gloom persisted. I tried to cheer myself up with some coloring in my journal. As I scribbled and smeared, doors and windows appeared. It dawned on me how lucky we are here in southwestern Ohio to be directly impacted so little by something so big. I felt a wave of gratitude for my solid home, stocked cupboards, and responsive furnace ... for the electricity and clean water that flow as needed, so often taken for granted. I didn't have to wonder or worry today about these or graver things ... but a lot of people did and will for awhile. The only thing I can say is help if you can.
