When you read the news reports from the Victorian Bushfires over the last few days the size of the destruction, the loss of life, property and the impact on the wildlife and animals is just too large to comprehend.
The threat of bushfires lingers over many communities across Australia every year …It is something that is always in the back of your mind … is it going to be this year .. is this year the year for the big fire … is my home going to be under threat … is it my friend or nieghbours turn … but I know within my own comprehenstion I would have never imagined something this big.
My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone that lives or has loved ones within the fire zone … My thoughts and prayers are also with all of the CFA and other firefighters, the SES, Police, Ambulance, the Armed Services that are assiting, the Salvation Army, all medical and nursing staff … and just everyone that is helping in the efforts in Victoria
