Balkans Floods

This has been on my mind. Lots happening in Eastern Europe. The situation is very bad in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia, and Croatia (former Yugoslavia). My husband has family there. They are okay so far. They're safe. Flooding hit their city but not their neighbourhood. Surrounding areas are devestated, bridges are ruined and roads are damaged. Hoping and praying everyone gets the help they need. People there have worked hard over the past decade to recover from tragedy, many just getting back on their feet after they suffered through war, and now this. Sad.

It sounds quite devastating.  Friends have family there too I think - hoping they are okay & that those who are displaced will find their homes somewhat intact when they return - although flooding is very damaging. 

 

Another reminder I suppose that we are damaging the earth, and it is fighting back.
