Typhoon Hagupit picture used is from cnn.com
This picture is the expected typhoon “HAGUPIT” that is sweeping Philippines to the core again. This was taken from cnn.com few days ago.
It is expected to be almost like Super Typhoon Haiyan but thankfully due to cold winds in the northern part of the Philippines, the expected super typhoon slows down and downgraded into a typhoon.
Bad news is that the direction that typhoon Hagupit heads to is the same path that Super Typhoon Haiyan rammed down more than a year ago.
The family that I’m with are praying fervently for days hoping that the storm would fade away.
In this state, we as humans have nothing more to do but get prepared and wait.
The malls and stores all over the soon to be affected areas are almost emptied. Basic necessities such as canned food, noodles, bottled water, rubber boots, rain coats, candles, matches, blankets, toilet papers and few bags of clothing were readied. We are waiting for the go signal for evacuation. These are the normal thinking of people in the area I am living in. Panic buying, nervous, and worried people are a common sight. As part of the family, I have no choice but go along with them, for it penchants safety. Somehow we are expecting the worse, waiting patiently and hope for the best.
I am most worried of the toddler companion of mine. She’s still young and know nothing much of this world but sometimes her words change my manner of thinking. Somehow she is the one who teaches me lessons in life.
Please pray for us.
Pray for all the countries and families that are affected and will be affected by this typhoon.
Godspeed!
Hope this will not be my last entry.
