Death & devastation
What to say, what to write when so many have died and many of us have lost everything.
Even the mere thought of rebuilding everything both in money and in physical sense appear an impossible task.
Feeling lost and outraged. Outraged 'cos if this could have been avoided why was it not?
No matter how long we live, we will not forget the force with which the water came and the ones who are responsible for it.

Flood 2018
The Sunday after the Flood.
There were hardly a dozen people in the church at noon.
The horrible rain had stopped. But the neighbouring areas of Vallarpadam lay completely submerged in water. The church neighbourhood was safe.
When so many have suffered miserably being lucky is very humbling.
