Houston Weathers Harvey!
The Headlines Will Read "Houston Weathers Harvey!"
Even as Tropical Storm Harvey continues to pound Houston and the surrounding areas with an historic rainfall, I can tell you the headlines after the storm will read: "Houston Weathers Harvey!"
In fact, Houston will not only survive Harvey, but in the coming months and years after Harvey, Houston will flourish.
How do I know?
Because Houstonians will do what they have always done in the past...remain strong and build a bigger, better Houston.
The Great Flood
Just like the world emerged from The Great Flood of the Bible, so too will Houston recover from its great flood in the wake of Harvey.
Having been an Houstonian since 1993, after seeing my fair share of natural disasters accompanied by flooding in Houston, there is one common newsworthy theme: Houstonians helping Houstonians.
Unlike some major cities caught up in natural disasters, what you do not see in Houston before, during, or after such devastation is further destruction or widespread looting by Houstonians.
Instead, overwhelmingly the news stories are always: Houstonians lend a helping hand to their neighbors.
Houston is a city of everyday heroes
Houston is a city where people routinely go out of their way to help each other in times of need and crisis.
As has been the case in the past, and is currently playing out across our fair city, you will find everyday citizens heroically helping each other.
This is an international city where diverse groups of people regardless of race and religion live peacefully side by side.
The Hearts of Houstonians Will Prevail
Houstonians will clean up, rebuild, and make Houston even stronger after the waters from Harvey have finally receded.
I am confident the loving, friendly, giving hearts of Houstonians will prevail in the face of this terrible catastrophe our city is currently enduring.
In the end, the big story will be: Houston Weathers Harvey!
The hearts of Houstonians and our enduring spirits will overcome this...we will rebuild!
Soon Houston will become the 3rd largest city in the United States. Furthermore, Houston will continue to rise, expand, and grow rivaling Los Angeles and New York City...it is our destiny!
My thoughts and prayers are with everyone and all my neighbors affected by Harvey.
We will get through this together and show the world that nothing, not even The Great Flood of Harvey, can dampen the friendly, loving, caring hearts of Houstonians.
Nothing can contain the limitless spirit of a boundless heart.
Houston will rise and flourish in spite of Harvey...
God Bless Houston and my fellow Houstonians!
