Panic
You know it all to well. When it starts, you fear it will never stop. Breathing becomes quicker, harder. Shaking, twitching, all over. The numbness, spreading like wildfire. Sensing the fear, taking over your body, ever so slightly, little by little. The world around you going quiet, dark. Only knowing, the never, ending, numbing, fear. The tightening of your chest, almost bruising your ribs, trying to be ok. Just wanting it to stop, needing it to stop. Keep repeating, "it's ok", "you're okay", "just breathe." You know sooner or later it has to end.

Months after hurricanes ripped away love and dreams it's starting to seem like the pain remains. On the dawn of the holiday season the victims have no power, some no turkey or gravy. During all this pain suffering people are too busy bickering asking why don't you help instead of offering to aid others themselves. It's heartbreaking to see no one remembers how to give or be thankful it's downright shameful. Now is the time to make a difference, to be a hero. You can change someone's life with just a dollar, remember some people don't have clean water. Stuck on an island with no lights and little hope as others on the mainland also cope. Most days and nights they pray for someone to save the day, reach out and help. Restore the meaning of the holidays by giving back and praise others for staying strong.
