My first thought? How am I going to get down to school? This is so unfair.
People have lost homes and businesses under feet of water; the state was backed up with trucks who couldn't deliver their loads; some people missed incredibly poignant events because of the rainfall.
And that was my first thought.
It's amazing what a little perspective will do...
I'm a jerk.

You are not a jerk. You are a human and we humans have a very close to the vest perspective on life. How does this event affect me? is usually the first reaction. The fact that you at a point actually considered the trauma to the other affected people is evidence that the nature of God is resident in you.
I think I can top that - sometimes when there is an accident on the freeway I get annoyed that the traffic is backed up and I'll be late to wherever I'm going. Ugh!!
True confession Monday? :)
