Hope

This little Koala has become the face of the fires that have swept through my home state of Victoria over the last few days... Many of you may have seen this on news clips around the world, but to me it is a cute Koala, who is hurting and turning to a human, unfortuantely to her a predator, the koala has seriously burnt paws, and reached out to the firey because his were cold and wet and were soothing to her.. Little Sam will be returned to the wild in a few months... thank the Goddess for her life..I have to admit I was surprised at how quick the video made it to You Tube..when the little video was in fact made for the fire fighters daughter to show her that not all the animals perished...

What an awesome video! I have an aunt and uncle and several cousins from both Austrailia and Ireland that all live near Melbourne. Our family network has been unable to reach everyone so we are very worried -a terrible, terrible situation to be sure....we continue to hope for the best...

that was such a sweet video - made me totally emotional that the poor Koala had survived and was so in need it trusted humans.
My heart and love go out to all those in Australia.
Blessed Be!
