Australia is "Going Under"

The events of the past week, have left all Australians traumatized. My heart goes out to all the elderly, animals and families that have lost loved ones, NOW imagine over 1 million square miles (approx the size of Germany and Italy combined) UNDERWATER. and its still raining!!!.

Dear old Brisvegas as we love to call our 3rd largest city Brisbane, has over 50 suburbs affected as well as the CBD. The toll in crops, livestock and homes is just incredible in terms of destruction. Not to mention (which I note, no one has) the indigenous communities of north Queensland, still wander as they have for thousands of years, and no one mentions them???....I guess those lives lost will remain a mystery.

"I cant imagine " can you?

If your religous say a prayer for those in trouble up there, if your not, send thoughts to the communites in too many towns to mention and the hero's out there risking their own lives to get supplies and assistance to people that are cut off, some have been for up to a week and will be for some time to come , my freind Marlyn recounts how her community is stranded, and one couple that did run a catering company had a large stock of food are putting on a dinner this friday for the town to try to lift spirits, this, is what us Aussies are all about. let us all hope this passes quickly.

Queensland is the most naturally beautiful tropical oasis, so many delights and treasures. Time to look after this planet, like, we are not being warned!!!! ..............................plan globally a future for all.

Peace and love, Nicci
