Today was a quiet day but hugely productive. As it was an unexpected day in my office, I even remembered where it was, only managed to go to it once this year! The reason behind it was unusual though.
Had it not been for the weather I would have been at head office all day, the photos in the news today show so much devastation. Trees uprooted, houses collapsed, wild weather at the beach, but there is a much more sinister side too. We really shouldn't forget the power of Mother Nature. Eleven people lost their lives in the UK, all as a consequence of the weather. 2007 and the weather in the UK is killing people, shocking really. We live in a cloistered world where people die from illness, or old age, accident or war. We don't leave home in the morning and worry about whether a wall is going to fall over and kill us, or if a gust of wind is going to overturn the lorry alongside us.
Sometimes we should stop and think.
