A fire broke out across the road from our house today, disrupting the predictable flow of life and turning us in to spectators.

What do we feel at times like these… fear, concern?

Personally I became mesmerized by the vicious and undiscriminating nature of the fire blazing out of the windows, it was hypnotic… until it was subdued by the order of the fire men who tok control and suppressed the flames within minutes.

As a single individual we are fragile, but as a species we dominate nature and are able to quickly stamp out any threat to the order and harmony we have created for our selves. A nice quality with the English is that when such a task is completed everyone gathers together for a nice warm tee.

The ladies who’s house this is, escaped the flames without injury.
