I am on my way literally a Red Cross volunteer and disaster relief Aid I'm from Oklahoma was born in Joplin Missouri Springfield hospital is no longer there due to tornadoes and I have done a lot of missionary work in Texas I have a fond memory of a American Red Cross worker about 25 years ago handing me a blanket and a teddy bear after a tornado devastated our hometown. It was a crucial pivoting moment for me in life I decided then and there that I was going to be in the military the Peace Corps and now volunteering thoughts and prayers with all of you Texans and all of you in Texas I am on my way

"It's what we do!" We more proud to be from Texas than America.

It's sad when good deeds get so much attention, not because it's bad, but because doing something good is no longer the norm and is considered rare. It should be the norm, not the exception.

Everyone except CNN staff is actually helping people and CNN is just slowing them down to generate content.
