In contrast to pain and suffering

If only the whole world could be just as calm and peaceful as the feeling I get when I go for a drive SE of the city. Recently, there has been so much tragedy in several places around the world, some of it still continuing. It makes you wonder how all those affected can deal with so much loss, fear, pain and suffering. The TV footage is horrendous, even for those who are not involved, living far away from all the tragedy. It makes me feel so very grateful and lucky to be living in a place where I can go for a drive in peace and safety. My thoughts are with all those who are suffering so greatly.

Taken SE of the city, in the Frank Lake area, on 27 April 2014.

This morning, I slept through my alarm's loud music for an hour and then for an extra hour and a half! Have an Open House to go to very shortly, so am in a real rush and may have to finish off today's photos when I get home.
