Sad Tones After Haiyan

“ I am the only survivor in my family I would just like to find out if there is someone who is still alive”, says the young lady with a hat on. “ We are like infants here and it is really very very difficult. The shops and the warehouses for food are emptied”, said the sad girl with tears trickling down her face. The group of Filipinos in England met in a room, and sang in chorus, “Amazing Grace” and one of them declared, ” They are suffering out there in the Philippines but we are also suffering here while looking at their own suffering.” An older woman spoke before the microphone, “I have lost everything I would be happy if I could get even just one blouse. “ A younger girl, called on her mother, whom she could not find. And out to the blue, she declared, “Mother, I am alive, I just need food, mother, please.” And she cried. A walking survivor was greeted by a journalist, “Do you have something to say? ” The man, without looking back, said, “I am still on a deep shock”.
