We all know about the tornado in Joplin, MO that happened recently. It cut a swath through the town, literally leveling anything that stood in it's path.
I had read about it on CNN and other news websites, but I never realized how devastating the tornado was until I saw the following video. it's un believable nature's power and how easily it can destroy things. I never thought about tornados int he past - but this one certainly gives me a perspective on them.
It's a tough video to watch - heartbreaking really, but my heart goes out to those in Joplin who lost things - family members, homes, personal belongings.
As horrible as I feel for Joplin and its residents - I'm still left in utter shock and awe of nature's awesome power. I cannot fathom a storm this strong.
My heart hurts for them. This video is SO powerful. It is amazing how resilient communities can be.
