30.3.05

Yesterday, at 12.15 am, I started feeling dizzy and my vision became blurry. I tried hard to balance myself on the chair, but everything continued moving. Then, I saw the water in my house's fish tanks surged violently. I realised it was an earth tremor.

15 minutes earlier, an earthquake of magnitude 8.7 rocked west Sumatra, reducing thousands of homes on Nias island to rubble and nothing else.

Maybe, we should all stop what we have at hand now and think. Think about what we should and can do, at this point in time when so many people's lives are at mess.
