Aftershocks

Tweet

Hello. Last Wednesday, October 16, 2019. Philippines, specifically in Mindanao, experienced an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.3. I was there at the mall that time when the earthquake happened. I was so scared. I ran quickly and made my way outside the building. It was difficult for me because all the lights went out that time. All of the glass were broken and some parts of the mall collapsed. Some people are injured and wounded. After that, we evacuated somewhere far from the sea because we were afraid that there might be a tsunami since our place is near in the coast. After an hour, we returned home since we heard that there is no tsunami alert (the earthquake is tectonic). Right now, it's been 5 days since the quake happened. There are still aftershocks, some are strong shocks. I feel traumatized of the shakening. I am always afraid. I hope the aftershocks will be over. Please pray for us.
