As well all know, hurricane Sandy destroyed many homes, businesses, streets, and attractions. She swept peoples lives away from them with no mercy. She forced people into homelessness, despair, and agony. But her wrath has also shown the true human spirit in a lot of people in the 3 states that got hit the worst, New Jersey, NYC Metro Area, and Connecticut. People have donated thousands of dollars to help with the Sandy Relief, people have offered their homes for people with nothing, food has been giving to the people without, and many hugs of sympathy have been given out. But as every civilization does, we rebuild. I took the day off from work today to help over in Staten Island (the borough that got hit the hardest) and do my part not only as a New Yorker, but as a human being. Here are some of this pics me and my friend took when we were helping clean up and rebuild, the ones that are long are mine, tall are my friends:
You can take our home, but you cant take our heart!

A lot of people are staying with family members out of state, and have not returned yet. I think they will be surprised to know that they did not get hit too bad.
