It's November and it will soon be Christmas yet I cannot however help but think about the devastation caused by Hurricane Sandy and for those who lost everything during it. My heart genuinely goes out to those people who lost everything as it did to the Japanese people after the Tsunami and every other person who has been on the receiving end of some disaster.

It's not all bad of course, Obama is made President for a second term, and I for one am glad and was truely inspired by his winning speach, and I am not even a US citizen.  Seeing the aftermath of shock however on the faces of those people who were supporting Mitt Romney, for me, as an outsider, it seemed like they genuinely felt like they were waking up to some man made disaster which I just cannot comprehend.

Looking at these photographs which I took a while ago but only just developed just made me reflect about what I have just observed in the US the last few days.
