When I look at this photo I think about how drastically different my life would be if I experienced such an event. The picture just shows how the things that we all do on a regular basis can be dramatically changed by one event. I can't imagine how horrible it would be to walk by the things that you do routinely and see them in ruins. I can only imagine how violated the people of hurricane Katrina feel. Suddenly this big hurricane comes in and takes away their houses (where most people feel the safest) I wish that this hurricane would not have happened and that the scattered fragments of debris, and the lives of the victims, would all be put back together again.
