The characters in Little Girl Blue have experienced
emotional devastation as well as divine healing. The play confirms there are
many types of devastation and healing that are way beyond our control, that
come from a higher power.
Devastation from a Force of Nature is a wake-up call for all
of us. Today is the day after the wrath of Hurricane Sandy ravaged much of the
East Coast of the United
States. Prayers, Healing and Blessings to
everyone who was affected by this storm - in the United
States as well as in the Caribbean.
Lives were lost: Dear
God, please bless the deceased and help the families and loved ones who are in
grief. Injuries have been inflicted and
sustained: Dear God, please deliver a mighty and speedy healing. Property was
destroyed: Dear God, please help the families and loved ones gain enough
strength and fortitude to rebuild. Power lines are down: God please bless the
families who are waiting for their utilities to be restored. Businesses – small
and large – have suffered: Dear God, please help revitalize and restore the
losses, which are indeed significant.
And please, God, Bless all of the Elected & Government
Officials, Military, First Responders, and plethora of Line Workers on the
ground who are working around the clock to help restore some semblance of
normalcy. Thank you!!!! Thanks to each and every one of you brave soldiers!
As for me, I feel more blessed, and more grateful than ever.
I live in Philadelphia,
so we were affected. However we have been spared and not affected nearly as
severely as other places, such as Atlantic
City and the Jersey Shore, New York City and a
plethora of other locations along the coastline and surrounding areas. In my
own case, I thank God for my sturdy home and its high location, which kept me
out of harm’s way. Even though the strong winds blew down a tree on my front
yard, I am ever so grateful that it fell away from the house, literally into
the branches of another tree, which is currently holding it up. Now that is
God’s Grace!
Asante Sana. Peace &
Blessings Always
