Killer Typhoon

Everything is like a movie.

Strong wind - so strong you could hear the "whoosh" of it as if it's being blasted from a speaker.

Monster flood- so high it's eating up houses! It looks like Pacific ocean ate up 3 fourths of Manila.

People- swimming, shivering, crying, asking for help and praying. Sadly, some have died.

Dead animals - dogs, cats, carabaos, cows and goats...and the latest- an alligator is on the loose!

Fear - the strongest emotion of everyone

Who would think "Ondoy"- the typhoon- would serve as an equalizer of the rich and the poor.

Bank Certificates, status and work positions didn't matter in this tragic moment.

Cars, TVs, stereos, chairs, books are floating...

I never thought "water" could be this frightening.

I am praying for God's mercy.

At the same time, I am thankful to God because He kept me and my family safe and warm.
Our house is safe.
Our business store is safe.
Our service crews are safe.
My business partner is safe.
And we had a peaceful night.

My worries and sympathy goes to everyone who are still stranded by floods.
