There Is Always Light After Dark ( Typhoon “Hagupit” Ruby )

Typhoon “Hagupit” Ruby Latest Update.(Courtesy of weather.com.ph)

This is the latest location of the Typhoon “Hagupit” or known as  Ruby, in the Philippines.

We are expecting a super typhoon as it landfall in the Philippines. But, thank God the storm weakens as it slowly enter the PAR (Philippines Area of Responsibility).

The northern part of Cebu is one of the many places that covers the route of typhoon hagupit. However, the path lifted up a bit going to the southern part of Luzon. Thus, we experienced minimal winds and rainfalls.

We are all happy though again, it took few lives of our countrymen. More or less, there were 8 fatalities reported.

Perhaps, the power of our prayers and all other nations helped a lot by sending message to God to stop the super typhoon. And yes, it was no longer a super typhoon as it enters the country.

I thank God for giving us enough time to prepare, for us to stand firm and to face the storm.

After the storm…

This morning along the road going to my office, along the Cansaga Bridge, I took some pictures and it was beautiful though typhoon hagupit visited us.

Fishing boats were ready to sail.

Calm Sky. People were ready for fishing.

People may cross the road as the sun greets them.

Those were some of the pictures I took as I go along the bridge. Even though our are were not that much affected  by the typhoon hagupit, but some places suffered a lot. Some Filipino citizens, and other volunteers took the following pictures and were sent to BMPM or “Bayan Mo, iPatrol Mo” website. All the pictures below were credited to the uploaders and the BMPM site:

A lot of people have learned their lessons for the past super typhoon haiyan. Most of them lost their love ones and their cars too. The following pictures were their preventive action against the coming super typhoon hagupit.

It was so sad to see and hear people crying after the storm, losing their loved ones, houses, cars and other properties. Please help me pray to lessened the heart aches of the victims of the typhoon and soon they will recover from their loss. This morning, I saw the sun shining so bright telling the people not to loose hope. I am glad we made it! We survived from the trials we had.
