Thanks for these kind and wise words my friend, it really means a lot. You are right, our default setting is to always go for the most comfortable way but life doesn´t work like that and we need to adapt to whatever it throws at us ;)
As for the floods, I remember similarly devastating floods in our region in 1997 and since then, various anti-flood measures have been taken here but unfortunately, the floods that came this year were much bigger than those in 1997. Bigger than anyone could predict and expect. That´s why the damage now is even greater than in 1997, despite the safety measures. But climate has been messed up all over the world and we need to expect the unexpectable now. Unfortunately. A few years ago, for example, another part of my country was hit by a tornado, something that never happened here before.
You are right about Florecita. She is our little angel, our everything :) Thanks again for your lovely comment.
