My Islands...

As you know the Philippine Islands are always held close to my heart.  This year a devastating typhoon and mudslide occurred on my islands that ravished the country side.  The storm killed 75 people.  My aunt still lives in the Philipines and when I found out about this storm, which occured close to Manilla, my heart sunk!

Thank goodness my mother informed me that she was away at the time and she is safe!  Its so sad to think but when these things happen it just goes to show that the people who have the least to lose end up losing the most.  Just another reminder of how unfair this world truly is.  My heart goes out to all those affected by the storm.  Stay strong Islands....
