Typhoon Maring


We all know what was the big disaster brought by the typhoon "Maring". I think it started August 16 2013 in the part of Central Luzon. It lasted about 1-2 weeks. The strong winds and heavy rains continued until it create a big distraction in our country. The main cause of flash floods in some part of central luzon is throwing garbage improperly. There are alot of property destroyed especially the informal settlers' property. Also the livelihood in the provinces also affected by the typhoons.

I am also affected by the typhoon maring but not as big as the others. I can't go out in our house for almost 1 week because of the flood. Thankfully, our unit in the condo is in the 3rd floor so it is only a small problem to us. There were no classes for 1 week. I had no choice but to stay at home and watch. I felt sad when I saw at the news what was happening in some flooded areas. On the other hand, I also felt happy for the people giving donations and relief goods to those who were affected by the typhoon. I also contributed, but in a small way only. By praying everyday. That was the only i can do to them.

It is good to see pictures like this because of people  helping each other.

  1. That's good. I did the same thing, I also prayed for the victims of the typhoon Maring. Praying isn't just a small thing, hence it is indeed a big thing. There's a saying that "prayers can move mountains', right?
