My aunt sent this to me and it pretty much says it all for us Floridians. We are weary of this hurricane season.

Even so, the goodness of humanity still manages to shine through. Today I spoke with Frank, he's the carrier at work who lost their home to a falling tree during Jeanne.

With their home condemned and unable to legally enter it, even to retrieve belongings, they had no where to go and little to take with them. Needing lodging and realizing that some unscrupulous individuals could gouge them for rent they frantically began looking for a place to stay.

Then the neighbor across the street came over and offered them his home. I mean offered it for them to stay as long as they needed. He is works for an airline and is gone much of the time. He is preparing to leave on a month long cruise and when he returns he will be moving in with a friend for an indefinite length of time.

So he said, "Frank, you and your family can stay for as long as you need and, oh, by the way, don't worry about rent." Now is that straight from the cup of human kindness, or what?

With people like that around, we cannot help but survive, overcome and prosper through the difficult times!
