The earth is most likely to shatter beneath us.
we don’t see it.
We can’t predict it.
But we can be prepared for it.
Natural disasters are unforgiving.
They take away innocent lives.
Houses. Land. Animals. Everything.
Myanmar was intruded by a disasterous cyclone.
Clyclone Nargis.
It killed many and left even more in desperate need of emergency aid.
There are 100,000 people dead
And 62,000 people dead or missing
And still increasing.
Villages that once stood at the stretch of the bank.
All gone.
There is so many of them dead that there isn’t time to bury them all.
Some are left out to rot despite of the hot weather.
Now.
the survivors are threatened by diseases like diarrhoea,flu etc.
Due to the stench of the corpse.
Having to lose their loved ones.
They are also given limited food supplies and appliances.
Bodies still litter around Yangoon,Myanmar.
A villager/survivor said,
“We are drinking rain water. If it doesn’t rain, we will die,”
Being a superstitious country.
Some believed that those who peristed in the disaster.
Will be back to haunt the survivors.
What do you believe in?
May 12 2008
Just 2 days after the horrible disaster another came
This time.
An earthquake has come,
A
7.8-magnitude quake.
And destroyed lives of the people in south-western si chuan, china.
Just like any other days.
People in Si Chuan go and return from work and school.
But today.
They experienced something much more different then usual.
It happened during noon,
Where people were in school,work or out for lunch.
No one saw this coming.
It had struck them without a warning.
The powerful quake was also felt as far away as beijing and shanghai and even bangkok, where office buildings swayed.
Many schools, buildings and houses in Si Chuan collapsed.
Leaving many buried underneath, dead and injured.
The death tolls are still rising significantly.
Some survived the deadly quake
But are now haunted by the disaster.
There are still survivors out there.
Waiting to be saved.
With the rise of the death toll.
There is more to be expected.
Those that lost their family members and loved ones
Were left to sober with nothing besides themselves.
Collapsed buildings left the city with nothing but dust and dirt.
Dead bodies lie around the city
Decaying , rotting and the stench is filling the air.
The smell of the dead.
Affecting the lives of the survivors.
Si Chuan government will be digging a long road.
To fill it with the corpses.and bury them all.
There will not be any coffins
For there are too many of them.
The bodies who are yet to be identified
Will also be buried.
Together with those that were sacrificed in this disaster.
Prayers will be made.
And I am sure that this day
Will be remembered.
For those that survived.
I hope that losing their loved ones will not affect them.
‘ The condition that you live in.
Does not have to live in you.’
And those that lost their family members or loved ones.
I give you all my prayers.
God bless you.
Lastly.
For those who are willing to help.

They need your help.
