looking for a way to use the phrase
"from Bewilder to Rebuilder" to
inspire my fellow fire victims to
have hope for the future..any ideas?

i envision a quesion mark
morphing into an exclamation mark...

my home and HUNDREDS of others in this county have been destroyed by fire this month. there are hundreds of families displaced and homeless and
the grief is huge. i have 60 acres and 7 of my land partners are also
homeless. life was so idyllic until now. now there are crews cutting down the trees in order to make room for power lines to be re-constructed and the place looks like a moon scape for thousands of acres around. over 50,000 acres in the area near me is fried to a crisp. I will post some fotos on my myspace page...

Thinking about this one, Laurel. I am playing with the idea that some trees in Australia only germinate after being exposed to devastating fires. We become stronger by overcoming the worst crap life has to throw at us.

Rapaire, what is the orange on the blackened trees? Fire wasn't still burning when the picture was taken, was it?
