This
week we experienced the powerful strike back of our Mother Nature. Even though
there’s no tropical cyclone or a low pressure area, many cities and provinces
in Luzon were flooded. Many houses were blown by the wind and many crops were
devastated. This great damage was cause only by a Southwest Monsoon. This
pushes me to care more for our environment.
I
experienced very cold nights these past days. And so to make me feel warm I turn
off the electric fan and cover myself with a blanket. My normal 25-30 minutes bath
time was also reduce due to the low temperature. In that way, water usage was
also lessened. And instead of just sitting doing nonsense things I help just
help in cleaning our house. I swept the floor and wiped the figurines.
This
Sunday I went to the Mall. I then bought a dress, and to my surprise the shop
did not use plastic bags instead they put the clothe in a paper bag. And when
we go to a fast food chain to eat I notice their signage saying “Sunday : No
straw day”. How blessed am I to go to this shops helping to save nature. And in
going there, I think that I was also able to participate in their campaign to
save our planet.
Even
in my simplest way, I know that I’m showing to our Mother Earth. I’m hoping
that people would also value our only planet. And I wish that they learn a
lesson from what had happen this week.
