recently, there are sadness in the air..
first the cyclone, now the earthquake..
is this a protest from our mother earth?
or is it a revenge from her?
for we keep harming her..
so many casualties
so many missing people
so many injured people
so many homeless people
so many hungry people
so many heart-broken people
and before you know it, diseases will start to spread.
some lost their parents
some lost their spouses
some lost their childrens
some lost their friends
all in all, their love ones are being taken away by the disaster.
a terrifying natural disaster which is unavoidable.
so sad to see the various reports on aftermath of both disasters.
even sadder for the earthquake cos it was really a BIG issue.
7.8 on the richter scale.
almost half of the china was affected.
it's so heart-wrenching to see the photos and tv news report on it.
especially when seeing some hopeful faces turning into disappointed ones,
when family members holding the hand of the deads, breaking down.
and when one is crying hopelessly for his/her dear ones.
nevertheless, there are some rejoiceful scenes.
survivors are being carried out from the debris.
a heart-warming smile on each of the faces who have found their family members safe and sound.
the rescuers doing their very best to search for survivors within the debris, despite the poor weather.
the doctors and medical teams doing their best to help the survivors.
i'm lucky to be born here, a natural disaster free country.
but, if we humans continue to damage mother earth,
i'm afraid a natural disaster free country will not exist in the near future.
let's pray for them....
