Love to the victims.
I think everyone should know those disasters happening around the world. Cyclone in Myanmar and Earthquake of 7.9 magnitude in China. Sometimes i wonder if its the human fault who cause all these happening as we, human being are destroying the Mother Earth.Frankly speaking, i pity those in China more than people in Myanmar even though the death toll in Myanmar is far more than China, but no matter what, the people and citizens who died in these natural disaster are the more innocent ones. I wonder how are the people who lost their kins and their houses gonna carry on living, but no matter what i hope they will stay strong and live on.
Every time i read the newspaper, hot tears rolling in my eyes and my heart ache too. I am not trying to exaggerate but i think i am not the only one who feel this way. I have been following the new very closely and everyday the death rate increases. Till now, 15000+ found died and 28000+ people are buried alive in the rubble in China and Myanmar death toll could reach 100000+. In China, out of the death rate, 1/3 of them are students of primary school to high school student. Juyuan secondary was said to be the building which buried the most no of students of 900+ as the building collapse inwards. Students are found holding firmly to their pen, their fist. One has to saw off her leg so to carry on living, body was found without limbs, face flatten, boy woke out and asked " where's my hand?" and so on. These scenario really make people heartache, though we don't know them but through the reporters we got to knew about everything happening in China and Myanmar.
And news report that when the ground start to shake, one of the class in the school is still having lesson and the teacher says its nothing and he lock the door and don't allow anyone to go out. These cause more death rate to the school as if he had allow the students to escape, more lives would be saved. Some teachers was seen hugging a student while letting the failing pillar to drop on them. They are so brave and great teachers to sacrifice for their students.
Newspaper showing pictures of people who lost their family members, small little kids buried in the rubble not only one but 6+ buried together, covering one over another. Kids and survivors waiting to be rescue as they are trap in the rubble. Newly wed couples went to Sichuan for honeymoon but till now, no news about them and body was not found. 5 days have past, pray hard that the survivors which are not found yet to endure and don't give up.
But Miracles do happen. 90+ years old lady found alive after buried in the rubble for 2 days+, 11 years old girl found alive after being buried for 68 hours and when she drank the first drop of water she said "The water is so sweet." 12 years old girl found alive but was ask to cut off her leg, at first she object and said "don't cut off my leg, i will prefer committing suicide" and she said she wanna drink coke eat ice and so on, after some time, she agree to the doctors of cutting off her leg so to keep her little life. Only 12, who can withstand the difficult choice she had made? The days she had gone through? The fear she had that will live with her for her whole life? She is brave, when she feel pain she cried but rescuers said don't waste her energy and she stop crying. I admire her and pity her. A boy was saved but have to say Bye to the beautiful world as he has become blind.
Nonetheless, i really wanna comment on the rescuers on their braveness and their willingness to save those people without complaining. Some had work 2 whole day without sleeping and resting, and now Japan sent their professional rescuers to China to help out and so does Singapore. I believe with the help of other countries, survivors would be rescued at a faster rate. And China reaction to the Earthquake are highly commendable, as they did immediate reaction to save those victims, Premier Wen Jia Bao, aged 65 also went to the area which was destroyed by the earthquake to endure and don't give up. To encourage them and he even shed tears when he saw the kids being buried and bodies being lift out, and he was so angry when no rescuers was sent to the mountain estate that he threw his handphone. But not everything goes their way, rescuers and soldiers sacrifice when they was rescuing the victims, being hit by falling rubble and was too tired that cause them to lost their life and some went missing. It's a mishap for them and may those heroic act which you guys did will never be forgotten to the people whom you guys have help and the world.
I notice i focus more on China as I pity them more as every couples are only allow to have one child each but in these earthquake they have lost their only child. Or some who had 2 as they paid money to allow their child to survive lost both their child. It take them time, effort and money to let their children grow to these age but because of the disaster they lost their beloved child.
I really hope to do something for the people in china, i have donated money for victims in Myanmar, even though its so little but every single cents count as Jet Li says " If you donated $1 i wont say less, if you donate 10k i won't say its alot as every bit count, and those love that you give is the most important" I think its something like that. So people, don't hesitate now, do what you can and help out. Kids in China are bringing their piggy bank to school to donate so can we.
Myanmar was even a sad place, government did not sent much people to the rescue and you could see died bodies floating on the plantation area, cows died with 4 legs facing to the sky. Houses being damage as its was blow up to the sky, children who lost their parents and so on and so forth. Poor little ones. May god be with there with you and persevere on.

A quote to share:
Everything happens for a reason, when things happen don't blame god or anyone and don't find fault but accept the fact. No matter how sad and angry you are, you are lucky to be here and cherished what god gave you that other's don't have.
