Recently, there has been a typhoon in Northern Mindanao. I can't help but shed a tear while watching the videos and seeing the pictures on Facebook. I have realized that it is very important to take care of all the people whom we love because we really don't know what's gonna happen next. I am just so thankful that some of them are still alive. I was so a alarmed when I heard the news because I have a lot of relatives in the place. I called them and good thing that they are safe and they are not part of the flooded areas. I was really saddened when I saw one picture in Facebook. A father is holding his daughter covered with mud. He is holding his dead daughter. I felt pity for him. It's not easy to lose someone. I experienced that before. If you want to help the people affected by the typhoon go to www.facebook.com and check on some updates by me or by my friends.

My heart bleeds for all the victims of typhoon sendong. I am mourning for the lives that was painfully taken from them. I have friends and relatives who were affected but am just so glad that all of my relatives were safe. However, I am equally sad for those who have lost their loved ones, their family.... As a mother, I could not imagine myself being in their situation, worst knowing that my loved ones were gone. My heart bleeds especially for the kids, for babies, they were so innocent and could not even fight for their own survival.. I am really crying while writing this.
I hope this catastrophe will serve as a great lesson for everyone. Let us join hand in hand in protecting and saving our planet earth, the only planet we live in. Thus, it will surely save our lives as well if will start caring for our planet. May the Lord give strength and courage for the those victims to move on their lives. And May the Lord protects us all from all harm that is yet to come. Hopefully, there will be no harm, and disasters anymore. Let us pray for protection.

I feel for you. I was greatly saddened when I saw the picture in Facebook. I couldn't imagine the place. I have been there before and I never thought that many years from now people there will feel the wrath of Mother Nature. I was also alarmed since I do have a lot of relatives and friends in that area. I really didn't know the things that is going on right now since I seldom watch TV. I am always online since I do have a lot of transaction over the net.
I believe that this will serve as a lesson to all the people living in this planet. We all have our own wisdom given by God. We should do the right things and avoid doing bad things especially to our Mother Earth. I really believe that each one of us has a cause why we still live and everything happens for a reason.
