Volunteers needed at Sri Lanka!!
If you've read today's edition of Straits Times, you would have come across a report about YMCA recruiting volunteers for Sri Lanka. Well, for your information, i gave them a call.
YMCA need volunteers in Sri Lanka. Not to clean up the bodies for goodness sake! That will be up to the local authorities and not us.. All they want is YOU be a friend to the locals.. To offer them your support! Please call YMCA at 6430 2333 for more details.
Ask you a question... You studied or worked so hard all your life for a better life style.. But have you ever stop your pace and think for others? I mean, you studied so hard and worked so hard for what?? To improve your standard of living, right?? But what if something big or disasterous happen, do you stop to show concern or do you continue your pace to find more ways to upgrade your life style? Do you still have the heart to live the way you've planned when people around you are suffering (from natural disaster, sickness,etc)?? Have you done something so right that you know you will leave with peace? Stop your pace now and think about what i've said.. Have you ever????
If you have not made any donations to the tsunami victims, what are you waiting for? Waiting for the sky to drop, the pigs to fly and the sun to set on the East yar? Making a monetary donations is necessary and an easy task, but going there and face their ruined home, ruined house/business and morale will not be easy.. Imagine the pain they are going through..
Picture this.. Singapore is one of the affected areas! Bedok, Tampines, Eunos, Jurong, Clementi, Woodlands, almost all of Singapore are affected by the tsunamis. You see wreckage everywhere you go.. Cars stacked on each other, shophouses all emptied with their goods floating around, shopping malls are badly damaged with shattered windows and those branded goods lying around on the ground, hotels flooded with water and... Dead bodies! Bloated and bloody floating around you. You have to push them away in order to make your way through.. When you stepped closer, you realised your house where you spent all your savings on is shattered... Your high-end computer and electronics are in the waters, your pet is nowhere to be found, your car is not in your porch, your furnitures are wrecked to pieces and your parents are seeking shelter on top of your own roof! What will you do? Who will want to help you when the whole of Singapore is in hot soup itself? Who? Me? No.. Me also facing the same wreckage as you... What will you do??? Tell me.. Will you wish that someone is there to give you support and help you in what ever ways they can??
Yar yar, the above scenario is a bit exaggerating, beside not everyone in Singapore live on landed property! But what if, it really happened?? What do you have to say then..?
Be kind, do your part, support the victims in what ever means that is the most suitable/comfortable for you.. Help others when they are in need and you never know, maybe one fine day, someone will help you too! (",)
