Ain't No Quake or Typhoon Strong Enough Against Pinoys

Just a few weeks ago, October 15, 2013 to be exact, the earth shook causing massive destruction and loss of life in Bohol and Cebu. 

The areas hardest hit by the 7.1 quake were up to now, still struggling to get back on their feet. 

And then November 8, 2013 came along with what was touted as the world's strongest typhoon in recorded history, Super Typhoon Yolanda. 

While I believe that the government and the people did what they could do to prepare for the coming of Yolanda,internationally  known as Haiyan, destruction and casualties cannot be avoided with a typhoon this strong. 

Some towns are still completely isolated. Communication and transporation routes 

are still down in directly-hit areas. And in the coming days, the death toll will rise as more information will come in. 

Thankfully, with the help of many people and institutions, relief and rescue operations are underway. The prayers from all over the world help, too. 

It would take a lot of time, a lot of effort before we will be able to get back on their feet.  

Come what may, we will get back on our feet. After all, aside from the amazing hospitality, Filipinos are best known for being reselient. 

Sabi nga nila, the Filipino spirit is waterproof. And quakeproof.
