[usr] When I lived in California my farmer friend and landlord had me get organized and have all my valuables together in case of a big earthquake. He stockpiled such things as batteries and water. [sys] I can understand that as I live in Florida and we prepare for hurricanes each year with a plan and emergency rations and supplies. [usr] It feels good to get everything together, doesn't it? You feel as if you're ready for anything! [qst] [None] [bhv] I'm in a negative mood, please comfort me.
Yes, you are correct. You can always hope for the best, but also plan for the worst. Being prepared is a comfortable feeling.
When I lived in California recently the farmer on whose land I lived encouraged me to get organized and have valuables etc. together in case a big earthquake hit. He also stockpiled batteries, water etc.
