Actually, I'm bit thankful to God that we live in a safe and high place in Cavite even though it was also considered as one of the places that was under STATE OF CALAMITY. But still, I couldn't help myself not to worry to those friends I had in Metro Manila and I was hoping that we're all fine.![]()
I was bit surprised as I watched news yesterday and even today about the great disaster made by TYPHOON ONDOY (international codename Ketsana) in our country especially to some areas in Metro Manila. I felt sympathy to those people who suffered from massive flood and lose their love ones, properties and other material stuffs. It was very unexpected and I thought this one was the worst I had ever seen so far. Seeing those videos in the news that some of those people were carried away by raging flood and after a few minutes were all now gone by sight plus even those vehicles were all swept away by the flood and those dead bodies which were found in different places.
Thankfully, some kind and generous people were all kept on giving relief goods and charity donations for those storm victims. Still, these weren't enough and needs much additional help so everyone was hoping for MORE HELP to come.
I couldn't help myself not to think that the mother nature was now returning a great payback time to what people had done in the environment. Everyone shouldn't look for those who to blame but instead, admit to ourselves that we are the one who had cause it and I just hoping that they will realize it NOW and CHANGE FOR THE BETTER.
I just remembered those lessons taught to us when I'm in grade school about the proper waste disposal, planting trees and other stuffs just to avoid floods and landslides. IT WAS ALL ABOUT SELF DISCIPLINE but as population grew more and more plus lack on education it seems that they forgotten about this stuff.
Plus, I just hope and pray that those politicians might even had the ideas that instead of wasting their money in campaigning why not they just give and waste it into something important like helping and donating it to those storm victims, at least, it might even helpful that it lessen the scarcity of relief goods plus those needed rubberboats for rescuing hose stranded people in some affected areas.
As of now, all we can do is to donate something useful for those victims and pray for them plus, hoping that weather should at least be fine even at least for 1-2 weeks. It was really hard to bring things back to normal in just a very short period of time.
