☮.♥.✮ ☀..✈: Ondoy taught me that GOOD THINGS DO COME OUT OF THE BAD.
02 October, 2009

One thing I learned from Typhoon Ondoy, is that we are all HEROES, even in our smallest and simplest ways because we are always in the position to help others. God bless all fellow HEROES out who have helped the victims of Typhoon Ondoy: Prayer Warriors + Rescuers + Volunteers + Survivors + Umalahokans in Blogs, Twitter, Facebook, Multiply, Tumblr + Umalahokans doing text brigades. Good Job Guys. Tulong pa tayo!Ü

  • I've been pseudo-MIA this week, where have I been and what have I been doing? Post-Ondoy Days. Let me know if you can't view the album.

  • This is really a good read from Manik Makina ~ practical, useful, and helpful stuff when there's an emergency because of a typhoon. I just learned that you don't have to carry a ref because it will float.

    due to certain circumstances, i can't go out yet... =( i'm trying my best to donate to different causes while hindi pa ako makaalis. hopefully, next week, i can give some face-to-face help na... i really really want to.

    Filipinos really are heroes... Kahit wala ung typhoon, maraming heroes--d lang natin napapansin... This time, the hero inside each and everyone of us is finally FULLY recognized and I'm happy that everyone REALLY is working hard to help. Go Filipinos!

    Yeah, despite the tragedy, Ondoy brings good news too ~ the unity of the Filipinos in helping each other. I love the design! Indeed, "Everyone's a HERO"

    after i read this, i was lightly punching my left chest with my right hand as if i shot a three-pointer in a basketball.

    :)

    felt it so strong and deep, man. :)

    and i hope being a hero wom't stop here. hindi rin yung panapanohon lang. kung kayang isapuso ito araw araw gabi gabi, gawin. :)

    Sa tingin ko naman, hindi magiging ningas cugon ang mga tao.

    It's about time that we change our bad ways. We shouldn't wait for another tragedy or calamity before we become united + we help each other. We all learned a lesson here, for some nga lang, it had to be learned the hard way.
