Argh... i feel like the world is coming to an end. Every morning, I read the ST in office and tears well up in my eyes. Although i am a free thinker, i still wanna thank God for placing Singapore in such a safe location, sheltered from all tidal waves and away from the earthquake zones. I should be the most thankful of all since i cant swim (yeap i'll be the 1st to drown) and i'm damn slow at running (yeap again, i'm just so "un-fit"). And there was i (a few days ago), complaining about working full day on X'mas eve and New Year's eve.
It hurts me the most to know that many of the people affected are poor folks, farming/ fishing for a living. Mind u, I know wad it is like to be poor and having to worry about the basic needs in life. i see corpses in photos, ruined houses and people wailing their hearts out. All of them lost something or someone so precious that its irreplacable. I have always respected Mother Nature, but her violent side made me quiver in fear and leave shocking images in my mind.
it proves to show, we may be the most intelligent beings on earth, we r still at the mercy of Mother Nature.
For those going back to school on Monday, rest well and see u soon~ :)
