TSUNAMI

A day after x-mas, disaster struck wid no warning out of a faultlessly clear blue sky.
Huge ferocious sheets of sea water simply broke open into the coast & nothing else could b seen for a while.
A common scene of raging waters washing residents out to sea & tearing children from their parents' arms was enacted in more than 7 countries.
The sea all around the indian ocean yielded up tens of thousands of bodies.
"IS THIS THE BEGINNING OF THE END " is a question tat now haunts many.

on new yr eve plz spare a thought 4 tsunami victims....

I have been thinking about those poor people so much, my heart goes out to the dead and those mourning them. it's horrific. you do wonder if it is the begining of the end. x x x x

in my country alone 13,000 ppl have been officially declared dead.God knows wat d real fig. is ,thousands r still missing. Properties worth millions have been destroyed.
i realy do wonder if it is the beginning of the end........

~Edited out!~

i don't know what to say other than that i am really sorry for the people who lost family, friends, and other loved ones. maybe this is the beginning of the end.

Yes I agreew with you so much. Mythought are with them all who have passed or all who have had someone past..What a tragic thing for those people to go to..I encourage you to read my poem called "the tsunami that took lives"... I think you'll enjoy it..I think it's great you getting people to have these victims in their thoughts over the holidays!

Well, That day it happened my mom called me from work and told me to whatch the news she knows things like this are something i like to know. I turned to the news...and I seen a picture of a little girl with bandages on her head, i didn't know what happened until i seen more pictures. I was in complete shock. My heart goes out to the many people who have died, or injured, missing as well as their families. it makes me question the expression "everything happens for a reason" because to see a child lay dead, body bags full of people RIPS my heart apart. No one should have been taken like that. 3 canadians so far have been declared dead...(I live in Canada) our community is holding a mass for all those who have suffered greatly......many people will have those tormenting iimages within their minds for the rest of their lives....I wish i could do something more....besides donate money and send food. It makes my feel helpless knowing all i can do is whatch people suffer......

***A moment of silence in those who have suffered and passed on***

I have heard about that one...many people were affected... i was so shocked...and sad for those people..

thank you all 4 responding ,n sparing a moments 4 tsunami victims .....
i know how u all feeling i m feeling same way 4 past 5 days ,i have been praying 4 them every nite , just hoping those missing unites wid there families n those no more there soul rest in peace....
i decided 2 drop all new yr celebrations these yr , didn feel like celebrating wen so many ppl r still greiving.
i was feeling so down so thought 2 share my feelings wid u all.....feeling much better now.
thanks again.

I just have to say on the news i saw this footage these people had taken inside a building they were scurrying upstairs as the room filled with water and they went up to a window and looking through there were 2 guys desperately clinging to the tops of trees surrounded by flooding water and one of the guys was old and was struggling to hold on and then the footage stops just as you see him start to let go. It was so sad my heart goes out to all the people affected.

The tsunami was caused my an earthquake

I think the end is near, Huge shifts in the earths mantle, the most extreme weather ever scene worldwide, suppost to be worse this year, Nature is coming to take back what is hers, The place where i work just sent off £18,000 to the tsunami victims it wont make any difference to families who have lost loved ones or their homes but i just hope it can help in some small way

the end is near? r u bloody serious? is there ne chance tht cd happen to us? i wanna just bring everyone u has suffered back to my house and look after them :(

Every year their seems to be this HUGE thing that effects the world, and they thing that hurts the most is it will NEVER end. People will continue to die, and suffer. But this was nature who caused this....it was a element in which we could not prevent. I just wish there was some way someone could have detected it so those poor people could have had a CHANCE to escape the horrible event. On the news the other night i woman talked about how people were like aunts trapped under water struggling to live....it made me sick to my stomach....it just goes to show that we need to cherish life in every aspect...because you never know when something may happen....but those people should have never been taken that way.

The earth has never been static and stable. There have always been changes taking place, some gradual and some catastophic. And there have always been cyclical changes in the frequency and severity of natural disasters.

People don't usually prepare for things that are considered unlikely to happen. You won't find many arks awaiting the arrival of the next global flood of biblical proportions. Although tsunamis can occur anywhere, they historically happen most frequently in the Pacific. Until now, the Indian ocean had gone 112 years since the last deadly tsunami. That one resulted not from an earthquake but a volcano eruption.

In many cases, people don't even prepare for disasters that are likely to occur. There are plenty of Florida residents living in trailer parks that get torn apart when hurricanes strike. In California most people don't have earthquake insurance.
