Memphis, TN: Floods Fear
While people in western world celebrate todau on Mother's Day, people in Memphis, Tennessee were fighting floods fear due to extreme weather. This year it was not good, after the earthquake and tsunmais in Japon, there were many storms and in the east and mid-west with snow in april, deadly tornadoes in Alabama and severe floods compared to the ones in 1900. Residents were told to leave their home for higher ground. Thanks to FEMA and the Red Cross, responses to these Acts of God or Climate Change were timely... But we too should also be prapared for calamities. It can happened anytime anywhere... It is the law of Anicca or "impermanence" if you are follower of Buddha's Faith... like me.
