terrifying and humbling

The images from the effects of Katrina are terrifying and humbling. They are numbing. They are motivating. Experiencing this wide of expanse of emotions is rare. Over and over again I remind myself that I am of the same flesh and blood as any other human. I am capable of evil beyond my imagination and good beyond my desires. When watching the footage, talking about it with friends, and spending moments in silence, let us remember these things.
