A Better Day
A Better Day
I know there's good times behind that pain, hey Can you tell me how I can make a change I close my eyes and I can see a better day.
THE DAY THE MOMENT HAS CAPTURED ME (December 17, 2011) Friday of December 16, 2011-the day that washed out a whole lot of houses, properties and lives. Tremendous rain poured out-no sign of warning and wind that blew that blew hard. Everywhere I turn, people talked about one thing-SENDONG that by no doubt-is the worst typhoon ever to hit the country. One thing for sure, there is something to be thankful for. An aspiring photographer-that s me. Carrying a camera-most of the time. But December 17, 2011, the day that almost wiped out Cagayan de Oro City. Instead of capturing the moments of what happened to the city after typhoon Sendong, it seems that the moment has captured me. I could not take the real picture-what I have seen with my two eyes. It was tragic. It was the talk of the whole city jeepney drivers, passengers and others. People, everywhere I looked, no longer in their slippers, with muddy feet were already asking for food and water. I could not take it. I could not take seeing my fellow kagay-anon in a very tragic situation. What can I do? What could I offer? Prayer is a powerful tool. I know God will hear us. God will be our strength. I always believe that there is a rainbow after the rain; I may not have seen that rainbow when the rain came, but God s light is always shining. A MIRACLE WORKER (December 18, 2011)
