#6 GC Reflection



1.                   One of the horrific calamity that I’ll never forget was shocked to watch on television how typhoon Ondoy swept our country particularly the most effected part of Luzon which the capital, Manila. It was very memorable for many residents on Metro Manila and people of other provinces which affected by the said Tropical Storm Ondoy.
           I was so felt sad and pity during that time because I saw lot of houses, multiple-story buildings where wholly submerged underwater for days and practically deep in mud for weeks. This typhoon was resulting floods, caused further damages such as to infrastructures and crops, and the most terrifying, the death of many people in different areas. Those images were stay on my mind even I turned off the television during that time and even though it almost five years after it was happened.
          When typhoon Ondoy hit our country, many people were unprepared and did not expected the worst it brought that’s why the disaster it caused was really bigger, wider, and very terrified. Wealthy or poor one, everyone was affected and did not going left to face its disaster.

But on the other side, it feels sad that there were people pointed and looking for people or agencies to what happened. On my own opinion, this typhoon was God’s Will to remind us of everything – in order for us to be strong all the time, and when there’s calamity that could we encountered never forget to pray, believe and be faithful to Him, at calling for everyone to help each other, to teach us for the bad things we have done and continue in doing to our Mother Nature and especially to bring lesson to us that no matter what happened, there is always hope and another day to start and continue our life.
           Through all these, there will still part of what happened that I saw an encouragement for us – to see the community bayanihan spirit rising, it was happened from all over Filipino people and contributing whatever they can for those in need. There were people raised as heroes for there selfless act to save the others and even their life was the change by those act. They gave light and hope for the helpless one to continue face life.
             Behind of those seen, many people get back their faith with God and understand how our Mother Nature taught us to being care to it. There were environmentalists whose calling on the government regulators to implement appropriate environmental laws to avoid happens again the accidents, disasters and even death due to massive floods as the results of the an indiscriminate dumping of waste into the rivers and streams, and the improper waste management.
            As one of the responsible on caring our environment, I’ll do my job to help avoid the worst disaster happened like brought by Ondoy. And I hope that all people, not only in the country but all over the world, will help on taking care for our Mother Nature.

THE GREATEST GIFT OF ALL
Jim Brickman Ft. Michelle Wright

It's not the flowers, wrapped in fancy paper
It's not the ring, I wear around my finger
There's nothing in all the world I need
When I have you here beside me, here beside me

So you could give me wings to fly
And catch me if I fall
Or pull the stars down from the sky
So I could wish on them all
But I couldn't ask for more
'Cause your love is the greatest gift of all

In your arms, I found a strength inside me
And in your eyes, there's a light to guide me
I would be lost without you
And all that my heart could ever want has come true

So you could give me wings to fly
And catch me if I fall
Or pull the stars down from the sky
So I could wish on them all
But I couldn't ask for more
'Cause your love is the greatest gift of all

You could offer me the sun, the moon
And I would still believe
You gave me everything
When you gave your heart to me

But I couldn't ask for more
'Cause your love is the greatest gift of all

You could give me wings to fly
And catch me if I fall
Or pull the stars down from the sky
So I could wish on them all
But I couldn't ask for more
'Cause your love is the greatest gift of all
Your love is the greatest gift
