Tsunami disaster after 1 year
26 December 2004. For some, it's Boxing Day. For some, it's a day where they lost their families, loved ones, business, shelter and others.
26 December 2005. For some, it's still Boxing Day. For some, they still haven't get over the loss of their families and loved ones.
Not long ago, I read a newspaper article on Tsunami after 1 year. It reported that most tsunami victim still doesn't have a proper shelter after one year. Where have all the donations went too? Down the water along with tsunami? I'm not sure.
I'm not concern about, who took the donations or what-so-ever nonsense. My main concern is that whether the victim of the tsunami disaster is living a better life now. Videos/pictures of the tsunami sweeping people away, child looking desparately for their parents, parents crying with their dead children are making me feel sad.
Everyone feels sad. Not only me. I donated only $10 to the Red Cross when they came to my school earlier this year. I wonder if my $10 is put to good use. If I can, I would like to go there to help out with whatever I can help. Cheering up the folks, help with repainting works or donate more money.
People live, people die. People cry, people sad. How long will it take for the affected places to recover to it's vibrant state? How long will it take for the people to get over it? (maybe never) Life have to get on. I hope that they can live on with their life. After all, your eyes are in front of ur head. That's why we must learn to look ahead. Let the past be part of the memories that is not to be erased.
Go.
