I gave thanks every day for my good fortune when we were traveling.  On the last drive north, we went through areas of Tamil Nadu hit by the cyclone.  The privilege and good fortune of being on our well-driven bus was even more telling knowing that we were only witnessing the aftermath of the cyclone through the windows from our air-conditioned comfort.  We gave to a collection to repair roof damage that would have closed for some length of time a local school.  I definitely was conscious of how much more we were engaged in the situation and wanted to help because we knew (albeit not well) people who were impacted.
