Her house was taken by the unkind wind and fires. Her dog disappeared, yetlping into howling flames. For these burning winds to end, was her deepestdesire. Now homeless, realizing life is not just an insignificant game! Each passionate kiss might disappear into a world deepest of sorrows. She kept her hopes alive, in a fourteen carat, blessed, lit frame, It was up to her, to realize there is always a blessed, grand tomorrow! 1/9/2025

Such sadness in every aspect. The horror of helplessness. May all fight to help stop this devastating disaster. Chantelle XOXO

Hi Chantelle. Surely, I have no idea how you can lose everything and start all over. Don’t understand how they have the courage to.do that. M Most people don’t know they can help them through various sources. I am not here to advertise any of them. You can always call your local fire to find out, which is best. If you want to I know how hard things are financially right now, but it won’t last long. And I think we’re all tired and worn out from the negativity that I’ve seen here in on TV.. We are hungry I live again, To be safe, To be proud to be an American.again. Love,Pangie xoxo

Nce of you to read me withot demanding I read you first.)) Cheers to you..thank you yoo for respectying me point of view and not dropping me as a friend because you are noy a know it all. I can tell that you give other people space to be who they are and you don’t play God. That is an enormous advantage to have over other poets. I am just a dweebish poet at best. You set an example here for many others.mAny great people I know are humble.. And guess what ….you are one of them. Pangie.xx you give so much to many. GodBless you. Thank you!1/18/2025

Hi Pangie, been watching those terrible fires on the news, so sad to see those who have lost everything. xx

I am glad you wrote John. I was wondering how you were doing these days. In California, we get 24 hou news and it’s more horrendous than I wrote. Welcome to join us here at problem central! you know is that our goofy governor had no water available for the fireman to use in their hoses. He’s really a bright guy right AND the Democrats can’t wait to get him uunto the White House of insanity. Elon Musk is providing Starlink so it is all ugly. can talk to each other because a lot of phone lines burnt down Pangie xx

Hello Panagiota, I am hoping that all these firemen are able to put out the fire. Now that these people are homeless, I wonder where they will live now. Hugs. xxx /Darlene/

92,000 people are under evactuation orders so people who like to start fires are also running around Los Angeles starting fire. They have fireman from my city down there and from all over California and other states. Tonight the wind will be 75 miles an hour in a hilly,bushy area, which threatens more homes , live a pile of ashes tonight.. no kidding ,,,like looking into a war zone.thank you. Darlene lots of love coming from me to you today. Pangie xx

Akham. I cannot expliain to you all! There are many good people trying to restore southern Ca. At the same time, we have no idea how many are dead because it looks like bomb on .Nagasaki. We have a new president coming in with a brain. But most here hate him. It’ll take more than hope. You would not like to live on the street with nothing would you?. Then we have poor people we’re not really poor on this site who despise anyone who has a dollar more than they do. Work at one time was an honor and a way to get to the top. Now there are hard with people who will try to carry you down if you have money. But Hollywood is loved . we here in America do not get it. Without people who have money we would not have jobs.. for cars.. we don’t need hope, because we lost our souls. Pangiexx

Hi Deb!I am a believer in God, and this was all forecast in the Bible. God did not create the world so we would have a good time. You can tell from history in every country!the word love case is running countries like we have in United States right now. I can’t wait till we leave in a few days.. And why were the water reservoirs empty? That is crazy. Human beings just loves to create problems for other human beings and they’ve been miserable. I don’t think that way. I am not a victim of anyone or anything. They try to make my life miserable, but they all fail. Things like this vent are friends being mean to you, our opportunities to grow not to moan. That’s what I was trying to say. You can lose property, friends so what?you still have your soul. I hope that makes sense. Nobody, but nobody can get me down, unless I let them. But I find people like you and I am ready to go.)) Pangie. Read the image…

So heartbreaking to see Pangie, it got me thinking as California is by the coast, why can't they build canals using sea water in those vulnerable areas so water from them could be used in case of wildfire. They've happening far too often something needs to be done. Tom

Tom, this week is way better, pangie

Panagiota Romios
Date: 1/10/2025 11:14:00 AM

Yes Tom, it is! I see your point. I would write to President trump, after his inaguation on January 20th. He is builder and innovator of the first order. And Elon Musk is in his tea. There are not more fires! The Santa Ana winds are horrible. You can’t control topography. No other winds in the rest of the state. I want to know why the water rubs the words were all empty. That’s very suspicious to me.. Pangie

Troubles are stepping stones to be better. The fires in SoCal, Tto say the least is dramatic. All first respondersshould gather huge credit, AND, people wordlwide can contribute financially? Plenbty of people who lived through it, have moved on. Testerday for all of us is history.., Pangie xx

Hello Eve! I heard Ben for a long time ago and it makes a lot of sense. I don’t know if it will feel.. You can look at the world half empty or half full.. your attitude determine your destinty mine,as well. People are quite powerful. That way is I see them. I don’t look at them as victims of nature, government or anything else. If you have a God, you can overcome everything I am absolutely certain.. hey.. wonderful to see you again. Pangie xx
