what can you do?

Yes, I agree this is a wake up call for all of us! It reminds that we need God above all. God finds a way to remind His people that we need Him. I remember three floods that happened in three different places at different times. Those places were full of vices and hell-like things. Then floods came and washed the places and the establishments away including many lives. I think that's enough for us to realize that we don't live merely by physical things and worldly pleasures. We need to pray! We need to repent before God would remind us.

One thing which you can do immediately is collect daily needy items from your locality and send it to the people who got affected by this typhoon. This will help them a lot, cloths, food items,etc from each persons house will help a lot for these needy people.. what do you say, I have done when I was in school..

Maybe it is a sign that we need to care for our environment. I think because of this phenomenon, each of us will be united. And maybe this will be the new beginning for us to change.

Times like this only makes the Filipino more stronger and tougher than before. Sure it will be hard but many people are helping and reaching out to others in need. People from all walks of life are united and want to help those who were less fortunate. I hope that this will show people that when we really want to do things right, we can do it if we work together. I guess the government should really think of a better plan on how to handle situations like this beforehand. We should learn our lesson. And be more prepared. It won't be the last storm that will hit our country.
