There is a certain Nomad who recommends during times of intense events in life, after the adrenaline rush wears off to take deep breaths of air
through the nose and slowly let it out the mouth. It does help ease anxiety.
In the wake of Muleges' disaster and the immediate surge to help and with the adrenaline pumping, saved the people of Mulege. Swift action during and
after was exemplified by the strong proud people of Mulege. Those people know who they are and who were the heroes along side them.
I have the utmost gratitude and very proud of them.
I am so proud to be a part of the community that has these qualities. That's why we will remain, be even better I hope because to reestablish the
continuity and beauty of the community it becomes paramount to return to a certain normalcy soon. To take that away would be akin Katrina. A
neighborhood lost forever.
Mulege is not that way at all, although man attempted to keep nature from destoying New Orleans by artificial ways, Mulegeans realize natures course
takes it right thru their entire community.
They will recover and it will flood again. Just as it does the Mississipi and hundreds of other rivers, bays and coastlines all around the world.
Life is way too short to adopt a "I won't rebuild" idealism. The rio is the heartblood of the area and provides opportunities and comfort to many in
a desert with little fresh water.
It sure was clear when we bought the house that that mud line along the walls was from a flood. We are people who take risks some would suggest.
I would suggest to them, jewels like Mulege come with certain risks. Same could be said about a zillion other places. Perhaps your favorite spot.
Godspeed to all in Mulege.
