Thanks for putting this slideshow together

with good background music.

I wanted to see the aftermath of the flooding

as we use to live in one of the cities.

I hope that people who are greatly affected and lost their homes be provided for.

People need to set aside their prejudices be humble and help one another in this disaster.

Have a change of heart and do good to all men

regardless of race, social status, education.

Let LOVE rule.

Is there a lot of prejudice in Cedar Rapids? I've heard they don't like outsiders? If that's true, it's a very sad situation, because as people judge, they too must be judged. This flood looks like a judgment to me. I think your statement should be posted on buildings.

Not even close hearing and proding people when they are in a tough time of there life what kind of a reaction would you expect. why dont you take a trip there and offer to give them a hand they would greatly appreciate it and dont judge them like you said judge and you too will be judged
