today marks one month since the ondoy flood!
(i am not re-telling the story...i have some good news instead!)
Oh well, i found it! (*wink*)
i spent my whole weekend at my old place to clean the mess brought about by typhoon ondoy. the first time i went there was october 10 and it looked so like a ghost town...
next on the 17th and 18th...i felt the huge difference - the used to be jolly place (at least based on my perspective...full of jolly faces, mostly from the children in the community) became the tired-looking community!
(the pictures are taken from wikimapia.org site for your reference on how big the community was during pre-ondoy)
it's still big as before but the happy faces are gone...either they moved to another places (highlands) or some vanished...i am just thankful some things and some folks are there to cherish the place up!
oh and just this weekend (october 24 and 25), i went down to visit the place again...and guess what? one of the things i found was my beloved "hello kitty ring" (it wasn't mine, it's a gift from jen) and folks i have come to see and talk to again were my immediate neighbors!
one month has passed and counting...
i call it the "art of letting go"
