Fires

Each day I anxiously watch the news to glean information - any information - about the country of which I am still a citizen (if no longer a resident) and where bush fires are now raging out of control. Of all the numerous fires across the state of New South Wales, three are deemed to be 'emergency' fires or out of control. Two of these three are in areas I know - areas where I currently have family and friends.

I watch ... I weep ... and I pray.
