Two days after the horror storm “Ondoy”, while the Philippine authorities are still busy to the rescue operations and humanitarian assistance to those victims, I realized today how lucky I am and my family because we’re not one of them. Although, I also have to struggle to cross thigh-level floods and be stranded just to get home and that our workplace and the area where we live was also affected by floods, we’re still fortunate compare to those people who lost not just their homes but their loved ones.
In times like this, Filipinos shows that bayanihan spirit still lives in each of us, no matter what’s their position in life, even the ordinary people, rich and famous artist tried to help in any way not just in monetary terms. Sad to say, those people that should be expected to be more helpful to those in need are not present during these. Anyway, it will be good to all of us especially those unfortunate victims of “Ondoy”, if we all pray for each in everyone to recover from this tragedy and stop blaming others of what happened.
