The Australian 2019/20 bushfires have affected so many and the repercussions are being felt worldwide, with outpours of grief for those directly affected.
I feel deeply for those who have list their homes and properties--I can't imagine what they will be feeling and going through. As a person who lives in urban Melbourne, I feel helpless. My small contributions to charities and opening up our home to survivors is the least I can do.
It wasn't until I allowed myself to see images of the animals that I broke down. The loss and pain for the estimated half a billion animals lost is almost too much to comprehend. And we are only halfway through the bushfire season.
