Jeremy

I have been having a troubling concern about one of our own.  I haven't heard anything from Jeremy in a very long time and knowing that he lives in Melbourne Australia, I am a little worried.  Has anybody heard anything from him?  I am saying a special prayer for him and his family.

BTW, I got a note from Blossom Goodchild that she has been safe from the flooding and has not suffered any damage or harm.  Thought those of you who follow her would like to hear that.

 

Hey Berry,

Thanks mate!..

I am fine and safe here in melbourne...there is some flooding down here as well but not like up north. Lives have been lost and the property damage is incredible but none of this should be unexpected. It is our natural cycle. Our animals and plants are all geared up for this. These floods have been severe but have not reached the 1974 levels.

It has rained for the last year and is actually a beautiful time here in Melbourne...In Australia everything slows down as year after year of drout continues...things like kangaroo's can actually hold a pregnancy off for upto 3 years...then the drout breaks as it has and everything goes crazy...flies, mosquito's, grass hoppers....everywhere...keep in mind that these are at the bottom of the food chain and feed our birds and reptiles...everything is breeding flat out!...our plants do the same and there is so much color this year.

While this is so extreme it can't really be planned for I get upset that we develop areas that we know are in flood plains.....yes those flood plains can be big....like as big as whole countries but what do you do?...pretend it isn't what it is?....it's only one year in 15 so it doesn't count?....they might not flood every year but we know that they eventually will. They push for a larger population here and it is not right...our land works different...we need to reflect our environment in our housing and developement so that things like this don't effect so many people.

I heard of one place where they have been through 5 floods since christmas?.....does this sound like somewhere you would want to live?.....

Australian's pull together pretty good...
I just saw our former PM on TV talking about how there was some sand bagging happening but not enough workers to distibute the bags...without being asked a guy organised 120 people and they instantly set up there own system for distributing the bags that was super efficient...the former PM was joking about how they did it so well and "without" government assistance...I think that is why it worked so well....

Thanks for your thoughts Berry, Viveka is in Qld and typed on another post. I am not sure if Viveka has been affected but she did sound safe....

I'm wondering about Rovin and his family, anyone else I'm forgetting?

Hi Kris,

Rovin also lives in Melbourne so he should be OK. We had all up ?..5 australians on the site, one lady was in northern Nsw from memory but I haven't seen her here for a long time.....

Thanks for updating us Jez and giving us a first hand report of what is going on.  Here in the States one never knows how much of the news reports to believe.  Just glad you are alright and in good spirits and health. Breathing sacred love to you.
