Super typhoon Odette has a lot of destructions and damages that if it comes back to say sorry, people would instantly say "we're good! you are forgiven." just so the typhoon would move on and never come back again. It ruined a lot that people hated it so much but like any other disaster or things, it still came with few blessings and things to be thankful for.

I have been praying about having a complete family and for my sister to come home for she missed her daughter so much. After two long years, she was able to come home and spend time with her daughter. The timing was so unexpected. She just knock on our door at almost 11 in the evening bringing her share of experiences being away from home when the supertyphoon strike. Their work was also affected that he decided to come home days after the supertyphoon because everything was a mess back there and even drinking and washing is a different task to do. She thought that circumstances may be bearable if you are with family.

It is true. My friends have been telling me that their hearts were calmed by the innocent reactions of the kids in their house. They were curious but innocent in nature and so they are not that scared even when the strong wind blows and the floods. They were the main reason why adults still hold on even with shaking knees.

After almost two weeks of stay at home, my sister came back to Cebu last night. She told me she want to come home but we have no choice as her work is in Cebu. I just consoled her that I will join her in the next coming months doing what needs to be done here.

Another thing that the supertyphoon caused is the spirit of Bayanihan. Some people have been so generous and selfless. In the time of need, there are people who were willing to extend a helping hand. There were people who shared whay they could have. There is no little and not a lot of help. We would never categorize help as to how big or small it is. The most important thing is that it helped us to get by for days. It helped us to survive.

The typhoon is so destructive and it is a monster. But we have no power over it. No power to stop it and nothing will happen if we curse it for the rest of our lives.

The first thing that we have to do is try to move on and survive because that is what we do right? Even without typhoon, everyday in our lives, we try to survive. We start our day praying that God will help us to get by and survive. Now, with the effects of the typhoon, we will add move on.

Like in relationships, moving on is a process and won't happen overnight but it will surely be completed. With time, everything will be alright as what Ben and Ben said in the song Leaves. The leaves will surely grow from the bareness of trees and all will be alright in time.

Thank you for reading. Until then!

Buhay na buhay pa rin ang malasakit sa isa't isa. Nakakataba ng puso na hindi pa rin nawawala ang pag tulong sa kapwa.
