“God ALWAYS forgives. People SOMETIMES forgive. Nature NEVER forgive”
Ondoy hit the Metropolis badly. Almost 80% was underwater. Hello Waterworld! But thank you because without you I will not be more thankful and blessed.
Proper Urban Planning
Real Estate builders or homebuilders should wisely consider where they would develop a community. Extensive research, meaning long term, must be done! Water level history, earthquake account, location, drainage systems and the like must be considered. One must disregard whatever development if research says the area is prone to danger.
Cutting Tress
Trees are our friends. They serve as shade during sunny or rainy days. They give us nutrition. They give us a place to live. They save us from landslides. So why uproot them?
No Useless Littering
Responsible throwing of trash can go a long way. It can improve the drainage system; prevent icky floating stuff during floods; avoid awful stench; especially help save Mother Nature. As they say, Basura mo, Itapon mo.

Pinoys somewhat find a way to take pleasure in the current circumstance -- even if houses are submerged in water or every material possession was lost. Pinoys still have the energy to smile and wave for the camera. Kids even enjoy the new pool and jump from a lamppost! Yabang Pinoy!
Bayanihan
Its amazing how people from different lifestyles come as one for one goal. Volunteers of different ages. Donations from everywhere! It is SO overwhelming! I just hope that evil people will not take advantage.
“Often it takes some calamity to make us live in the present. Then suddenly we wake up and see all the mistakes we have made.”
