Palu Earthquake

My Personal Thoughts on the Indonesian Earthquake”

This disastrous event has struck some cords with me emotionally. I have a lot of thoughts that have me going. The media really must do a better job of reporting on the current situation on the daily. So many mainstream media talk about it for like a day or so and a week or two later, there’s nothing about it anymore. Many people need this information out because they can be directly impacted or desperate. So many people must be devastated by this. So many people need to know if their families are safe, if their homeland is safe, and if everything is going well there. The media seriously need to give the right news because this can affect a lot more than the people in Indonesia alone. It must feel so helpless or depressing for some Indonesians knowing that some people are just forgetting or even unaware of the state of your country. I can relate to this disaster in my own life when the typhoons hit the Philippines. Lucky I didn’t lose any family, however that didn’t change how I felt about their way of life is changed. A lot of fundraisers were held on that behalf and I remember trying everything I could to donate as much as I could, like every coin I had. I hated seeing the pictures and the aftermath and I also hated the number of deaths that piled up. Such a tragic event that really changed my view on nature. The Indonesian Earthquake is something that no one should go through at all.
