we tend to scramble to a place any where in the world to help those who who have fallen from a collapse of a building or a major flood well as I was reading this story this morning I was thinking to my self what if I was trapped inside of a building that has collapsed how long would I be waiting there before I would give up hope of ever being found so alive or even dead they say that in most cases they call of the search after 72 hours in hopes of finding any one alive but I have to think we can live that long or longer with out food or water here is the sad story in full from CNN.com http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/28/world/asia/bangladesh-building-collapse/index.html?hpt=hp_t1

I can't imagine my self in that situation because it is hard, the survival thing is difficult if you have a weak personality, but sometimes as human we tend to fight to live, in situation like that in the news our instinct is telling us to keep our hope and think to live and on the cases like that, we should stay calm so that we make a best plan, because we can't make good decisions if we are in panic.

One of the greatest tragedies I witness regularly is the way North American people from Canada, the US or Mexico are constantly donating money to causes like this and being so generous. What are we labelled as? Infidels, the white devil, etc. We are the most generous countries on Earth and it is constantly twisted and manipulated by hate mongers and people who represent the greatest evils in the world. Our countries are greatly in debt but we still will always give and help the world while we are hated and disrespected. It will never change because of our immense generosity and understanding. I am sure we have already begun giving our hard earned money to these strangers who will never even know it came from us.

It would be terrifying knowing the longer it gets the less hope there is of you being found
