Although I don't know any of the victims or their families, I was very close (in proximity) at the time the flood happened. I was getting unloaded in Austin, and remember the bad weather. I had the audacity to complain that the bad weather was causing me to get the inside of my truck dirty and wet from the rain and mud and such on my shoes having to climb in and out in that weather. I had NO IDEA that 135 people, including 35 children, were swept away mere miles from where I was. I only heard about it later that evening, July 4th, and then more the next day while I was parked at a truck stop in Texas nearby for my weekend break.
This very close proximity to this horrific event, as well as just my deep Christian faith and unbelievable level of emotions I've felt since July 4th, I've had a tremendous problem with getting past this. Every day, every single day, I cry multiple times a day uncontrollably. I just cannot believe all of those beautiful angels are gone. I just can't wrap my head around it. My parents are getting concerned but I don't think me feeling this way is wrong. 35 parents lost their babies that morning. I'm also sad for the entire families wiped out from RV parks and such. I'm not ONLY sad about the little girls from Camp Mystic, I'm very sad about everyone.
I've left condolences on many of the obituary pages of the children. I've said non stop prayers. I really don't know what else to do. I stumbled upon this AI generated image and for some reason, immediately, busted out into a crying heap the moment I saw it. It was so beautiful, so perfect, so heavenly. I've posted it so others on this forum can enjoy it too. If you care about these victims, who were 8 and 9 years old attending a Christian summer camp to worship the Lord and have a wonderful time with their friends, then I think this little image will tug at your heart strings. It's about the most beautiful thing I think I've ever seen.
God bless all the families and all the victims of this horrible horrible horrible event that struck the hill country of Texas on July 4th, 2025.
An image of these beautiful angels, running up out of the water, through the gates, and straight into Jesus's arms. I can't believe how perfect this image is.
