      I'd really have trouble leaving our furry kids behind. I know that some people think that those who greatly care for their "pets" are crazy, but our furry kids (and feathered kids) are more selfless and give more unconditional love than some humans I've come across in my life.

      My hotel is currently filled with pets from all the people evacuating the last few pet friendly hotels who won't charge. I can say the only negative thing right now is the fact that we're understaffed we were not ready to have a full hotel. some people were being really rude when you're trying to be understanding but they are taking out thier frustrations on us 🙄

      for the past decade i’ve maintained that the simplest step to stopping climate change & the bigger & badder storms with flooding, tornadoes & wind damage/fires/droughts/heatwaves/blizzards is to eliminate the pet industry with its isolated demands on fossil fuel use alone being worse than almost all economies in the world combined. the real choice is either you selfishly have have your stupid cat or dog or that your great grandchild will have a chance to live.

    All the best to the victims, and those you love who are dealing with this tragic hurricane. May you stay safe, and healthy, and not suffer too much damage. Be well. Protect your loved ones. It’s even more important during the 20 month pandemic. Seek shelter, and be safe while doing so. Words cannot describe what you are going through right now. We can’t even begin to imagine how hard it must be. We don’t have the answers but we hope that you stay safe out of harm’s way as much as possible. It’s something that we hope you can stay safe from. But it’s all in God’s hands. We are keeping you in our prayers. Your in our thoughts during these trying times. Praying for you. God Bless. Protect yourself, and those you love. 🙏

    • @jasminem3902
      @jasminem3902 2 года назад +1

      Yes technically it is worse than Katrina as far as the actual storm goes. What actually made Katrina as devastating was not necessarily the storm itself but the Levees breaking allowing EXTRA water to get in that otherwise wouldn't have. And what further made Katrina bad was the lack of response and assistance in the Aftermath. But categorically this storm is said to be worse. But as long as the levees hold the Aftermath wont likely be as intense as Katrina.

      Camille was the worst. Katrina wasn't no baby either. But the Galveston Texas hurricane of 1900 was the winner by far.

    People when will you all learn to stop using cheap housing products and nails to build. Use and build your home out of cement, all the Walls & Roof also install alum storm or accordion shutters and you'll make it fine then top it off with a back up generator above the flood line. its worth the time and money to get piece of mind and survive.

    🌀 My Ida survival story 🌀
    Too late to evacuate,
    Plus where would we all go?
    In a short amount of time,
    What was a category 3 changed to a 4.
    We tried to be prepared the best way we knew,
    But no one could prepared for what we would all actually go through.
    Beginning of it we were all okay,
    Watching t.v as the winds made the trees sway.
    Than Ida became more aggressive,
    Winds, rain, picking up speeds reckless.
    Power went in out, kids became scared,
    Son & youngest daughter, faces filled with tears,
    Ceiling light fell, leaving pieces of debris to clean,
    Leaving me & dad to take turns mopping up the leaks.
    On top of the water from outside that began to creep,
    From what had to be from all directions,
    In various different sections.
    We managed & survived the hurricane,
    Thankful we made it to see the next day.
    Next day was sunny exposing the damage left,
    With enough juice in my battery to text.
    We are ok we made it, thank God for his grace,
    Other Ida survivors texting back the same,
    When will power be on, still left in the dark,
    Even as I write this that question still has a question mark ❓
    Looting & breakins every man for himself,
    Leaving all stores close to home with nothing on their shelves.
    Home feeling like a sauna, faces losing weight,
    No hot meals, for us to put on our dinner plates.
    Its crazy what you begin to miss when its all gone,
    Just like you dont how strong you are until you gotta be strong.💪
    But strength comes with numbers,
    Not gonna lie glad we had one another.
    We lit candles and played card games,
    Laughing at the funny jokes told, most lame.
    After 3 days we finally had a warm meal thanks to pops,
    Otherwise it was pb&j, can goods, water & soda pop.
    Sis offered us to stay with her in the sunny state,
    Offer I had no objective to take.
    Gas was scarced, & the ones that had gas,
    Lines were so long took 2 hrs to fill our tank.
    But no complaints we made it,
    Seeing my kids frowns turn to smiles,
    Enjoying hot meals we didn't have in awhile.
    Watching my 4 year old sleep peacefully,
    Instead of her tossing & turning,
    No more complaining about how her body was burning.
    During the storm she was meditating,
    Now she jumping in pool water with no hesitations,
    These kids honestly are having, like a mini vacation,
    Beyond grateful for my sisters act of kindness,
    R.i.p to the lives that were lost, moment of silence 🙏

    “Mankind's response to the Message of Bahá'u'lláh has been dangerously, one might say disastrously, slow. From the earliest days it has been brought to the notice of leaders and scholars, but few of these, very few, have rallied to its support. The most profound and most widespread response has been from the middle classes and indeed from the poor, the unlettered, the deprived and the suffering..........”
