diverting energy to helping. . . .

slowly, in my mind, all that is happening back home on how the relief and rescue operations are beginning to give light. there will always be two sides of the story and it is a must for us that we hear both sides for reasons that are up to ...you to decide. it looks so bad and grim, but eventually things will move on and the survivors will be given the necessary help they needed. just like one art...icle i read, which is also true to life, "things get worse before they get better". i've been doing some reading around as well on how other countries fared well on their calamity operations and found out that haiti and india and other countries had the same problems in logistics and implementation. we carry a variety of sentiments towards our government and its jurisdictions and the system itself. we have all the right to rant and rage. i read peque gallaga's sentiments and that of Marvin Xanth Geronimo from Tacloban, the spat between korina sanchez and andrew cooper, and Karl Gaspar's status who mentioned that somehow their operation in their compound in tacloban are operating smoothly. i read rappler, interaksiyon and other media that i think give responsible and unbiased reportings. most of all, i read john crowley's write up "stop catastrophizing relief effors in the philippines" which explains how "scaremongering" is undermining delivery of supplies. i suggest that you read this one to somehow take you to the other side of the story. i, too, shared my own rant and rage and that is all i could do. but it is very exhausting. it is very tiresome to read all the bashings, the anger and all the pessimisms around. more so, it is so exhausting to write the disappointments i have and have now decided to divert my energy to helping.
