We haven’t even recovered yet from the devastating earthquake we experienced last October, the planet has decided to once again choose us for another calamity. The Super Typhoon Yolanda, (international name: Haiyan) has caused so much grief and proved more deadly than the magnitude 7earthquake that topled century old churches in the province of Bohol.
Until now, thousands are missing and millions are homeless and hungry. Provinces along the typhoon’s path were left devastated with infrastructures damaged beyond repair. So many lives were lost and so many loved ones still unaccounted for.
And now, just barely 4days since Yolanda made landfall, here comes another typhoon wrecking havoc to the already devasted provinces that Yolanda left behind. As unbelievable as it may be, we also still feel strong aftershocks as a result of the October earthquake.
Sometimes, i am tempted to ask, what did we ever do to deserve this? Sometimes it feels like we are being punished for something.
Looking at photos and watching the news coverage about the typhoon breaks my heart. It makes me teary just looking at all those people with almost nothing to eat, no houses to go home to and not even clean water to drink. Our donations wilm not be enough ease their suffering. In Tacloban city and Samar, everyone has lost a loved one and barely trying to survive. In northern Cebu, Negros occidental, Mindoro and Palawan, the people are trying to rebuild their lives.
We are still looking for loved ones. We are still hoping that they are alive and safe. We are praying for everyone. We are doing our best to help. I’m not rich but I do hope our meager donations can help those in need.
At this point, i can only pray that end this year with no more tragedy. Our country has suffered enough already.
