THE AFTERMATH

In my last post, I remember saying I will post more pictures of the terrible hailstone that hit us here in Manitoba at pre-dawn yesterday.

As I started to search for more signs of damage in our property, I spotted more things I never thought would sent me in despair.

I was a little upset . Not too upset to curse or blame someone.

I was maybe not angry, maybe it was a feeling of hopelessness and annoyance for my total laxity.

I knew there would be episodes of lightning, as some had been reported injured struck by a lightning two days ago in a soccer field and then a family’s shed burnt after being struck by a bolt of lightning.

Those could have been signs ahead of what was to come, but I was too busy to carry on with life just as another normal day until tragedy struck.

The only thing I am grateful about is that, it was not our life taken away, it was just one of those material possessions we can actually learn to live without.

Life is beautiful.

The complete package of life, with all the ups and downs and all sorts of trials and tragedy that comes our way is always an opportunity to learn something from.

Here’s some of the other pictures I took.
