Disasters

Disasters. Why do they pounce on us so suddenly ? Catch us unawares.Hit us when we are sleeping.When we are having a good time.When we are living peacefully. Some say it is God's `wake up call'. Some say it is God's retribution. Why not just hit the bad evil guys,not those innocent kids and good guys. Think of it like this.If you are still standing,that means you have been given another chance to fullfill your `mission' in this world. Those who have perished,God loves them more,or maybe they have completed their `tasks' on Earth. Mankind have devised so many ways to predict and warn us about impending natural disasters.But they can never predict `when'. All humankind can do is just be prepared. Sometimes we are just asking for disasters to happen.Look at how we abuse the hills.rivers and seas and even the air that we breathe. Don't ever say it is the Act of God when something bad happens. We asked for it. Powerful nations can bring disaster to your doorstep.All it takes is for one small country to defy them.Next thing you know,the country that you love becomes Hell on earth. What would you do,if your town or village is suddenly hit by an earthquake,landslide,erupting volcano,building high tidal waves. Save your own family first,naturally. How about your neighbor ? I cannot answer that truthfully.
