<<First Name>>
It has taken me a while to write this. In fact, it is a month ago that we were patrolling all day and night, trying to not panic at the sound of explosions and gunshots, checking in on friends and family, queuing for hours and hours to buy...nothing. Our shelves were empty, our mall decimated, our community tired. We were like the walking dead, scavenging for a loaf of bread, swapping sugar for toilet rolls, milk for eggs. However, we were NOT defeated. We rallied and we protected what remained. We collected food for those left without. We helped shops bring in trucks, and restock shelves. We were one. It took us a long time, and a hard lesson, to learn the power of Community, of Ubuntu.
