Today the BC Government announced a plan to support the condition of the fire effected! The program through the Red Cross, a partnership, is to help after a prolonged state of emergency this summer.
As communities begin to recover from one of the worst summers on record for forest fires, the Canadian Red Cross encourages local governments and other organizations in the fire-affected communities to apply for funding through the Community Partnerships Program to help with recovery and rebuilding.
Local governments, First Nations bands, schools and community organizations all help build community, help each other through crises, and rebuild community – whether it’s structures or spirit.
Funding from the Red Cross Community Partnerships Program could help create projects such as welcome back gatherings, traditional Indigenous ceremonies, safe spaces and play activities for children, increased counselling services, etc. Source UBCM

Ever thought where the gold in your wedding ring came from in the beginning. It came from a collapsing star or a neutron star expelling its matter out in an ever expanding universe. It as well as your body are star dust. If that thought does not add sanctity to your wedded bliss relax it s normal to be concerned with the day to day of your livelihood, relationships and your space on the block. But for a moment take a breath and consider the forces and magnificence of your being, to be able to contemplate such things is special! The time involved and the energy that connects you is no cheap deal nor is the trust you made with that little band of space dust.
Rise my friends from the low things of failure and take a moment to check your course and see that it is worthy of you! Since being such a special concoction of star dust gives pause!
The person that you are or may be, one worthy of the wonder of all things! If you are perfect now and no longer in need of a quantum leap to complete you,that’s great. Need more spooky action to bring the right elements into your completion ? Just wait for the next gravitational wave to drive you , it will be along in good time.
Gravitational waves:
Some gravitational waves were first observed this week as distinctly coming from a collision of two specific neutron stars that collided eons ago.
The universe is alive with waves of gravity, spooky action is one of the terms of quantum physics you will have to investigate as to its meaning. KDG
Space-time can be considered to be the fabric of the universe. That means everything that moves, moves through it. In this model, anything with mass distorts the space-time fabric. The larger the mass, the larger the distortion. And since every moving object moves through space-time, it will also follow the distortions caused by objects with big mass. source Earth Sky News.
