Writing this post with a lot of guilt even though I shouldn't. But, I have beyond exhausted myself during Helene and I have a flight home and pulling out. What I've seen during this event especially across Erwin, Tennesse are going to stick with me for a long time, and will take me awhile to decompress from. I finally broke down crying today after talking with a gentleman who was just simply showing me his camera and I think it was the first happiness or joy I had experienced in nearly two weeks that finally did me in.

He was sending me photos of the event as it happened and made me promise to listen to a song he sent me which was on of their songs that their song book had been opened to and still remained during the flood which I am fulfilling on my drive back to Atlanta. I feel like I just took on Everest and utilized all of my skills I have learned...
