scared

with every day that passes, this situation in lebanon gets more and more terrifying. do we really see an end in sight? the country is going to be destroyed before it's over. all the big-dog political analysts are calling it "world war 3". wow. that's intense. is this really WWIII? i'm not yet sure what i think about that. but it's a damn scary thought. my own fears of war aside, because, really i have nothing to worry about at this point (nor will i probably ever), leo is still in lebanon. i have never been more scared for someone in my whole life. i have no idea what his situation is really. we know that he has moved further north and has registered to be evacuated. but he doesn't know when the evacuation will happen. he just has to wait. hopefully it isn't much longer. at least there has been some aid allowed in so the people there aren't completely cut off. and at least he knows that eventually he will be allowed to leave. and come back here. away from the bombs and the killing and the death. i can't even imagine what it would be like to have no escape. i don't think that it is possible for me to be more thankful that i am canadian.
