America is struggling because we have lost our Spirit Wind
Even the great winds from across the oceans cannot find what we have squandered. The Spirt Wind was lost after we scarred and scorched our land, ripped the trees from the soil and sucked the precious waters from the land.

We have been too cruel and careless and now we are reaping the cost of our tragic folly.

Without our Spirit Wind we are lost.

Behold our requiem.

3. We certainly could use more wisdom from a culture different than our own. Too much
of one single solitary culture and civilization begins to rot on the vine.

4. Payback's a bitch.
Maybe if we hadn't killed the Indians and enslaved Africans...just for starters...the turn of the great karmic wheel wouldn't be so harsh.

5. Sorry, but since May 22 I can not look at wind as something good.
I can only see it as a demon out to destroy your dreams.

Hope you all are starting to recover down there. I just drove through the area on my way from St. Louis down to Austin and what little I could see from the highway looked ok, but I know the devastation was massive elsewhere. We had some pretty destructive storms on Good Friday but nothing like what you suffered.
