Leonard Pitts’s column was spot on. We went through Hurricanes Jeanne and Frances in Stuart, Florida, in 2004. We lost our roof and had no power for three weeks. In a disaster like this, you really find out who your friends are – and aren’t. People came out of the woodwork to help, some that really surprised me.

My longing comes to my lips as supplication of mine
Oh God! May like the beauty of the candle be the life of mine
May the world's darkness disappear through the life of mine
May every place light up with the sparkling light of mine
May my homeland through me attain elegance
As the garden through flowers attains elegance
May my life like that of the moth be oh Lord
May I love the lamp of knowledge
May supportive of the poor my life's way be
May loving the old, the suffering my way be
My God! Protect me from the evil ways
Show me the path leading to the good ways
