Oklahomies

 

It feels wrong to post something somewhat meaningless today considering the events that happened yesterday in Oklahoma. Having two close friends who both live within twenty miles of Moore, Oklahoma, I got a play by play of the tornado path and destruction via text message. Reading texts about severe weather alerts, storm shelters, and hail the size of golf balls seem to be relatively normal chatter with them. However yesterday was different. Yesterday was when what if scenarios came true. Yesterday's tornado tore apart the spirit of Oklahoma but summoned their community to unite. And they will. I am so blessed to have two friends with homes intact and family members in their arms while others weren't so lucky.
