What Goes Around Comes Around

While I do think that you are right to say that there is nothing that we are able to do to keep from experiencing natural disasters. I definitely can see why God does come into more focus when we are going through something difficult in our lives. You see, many times we take for granted that things are going to be alright in our lives, but when things are going the way that we are used to it going, then you do realize that there are so many things in the world that are beyond our control.

I hear what you are saying and raise ya one. I get aggrivated big time when I hear the phrase " Give it to God!" Like we as a people can't do it ourselves or don't have the capacity to do anything. No back bone, no responsibility for our own actions. No responsibility for what they do. Just give it over to God.

You are correct there my friend,that the moment there are typhoons coming with heavy monsoon rains many people would just say leave it up to faith in God,which is a wrong notion,because even if we keep on calling His mighty Name,even if we are safely place by His will to save us.Many are not doing their jobs.They keep on throwing their garbage just anywhere they wanted to litter it.You can not scold them because they will be angry by telling you that why are there so many others who does it to pinpoint their mistakes.They are careless,not knowing the real truth even if media was keeping on reminding the public to keep away from throwing the garbage,for it could be coming back in the form of floods.I always do myself as an example to all my neighbors to do something good for the benefit of environment by correct disposal of garbage,and not setting a fire into plastic products,and other things good for the environment.I wish you have a good day.......

You may be right about your opinion but I think in crisis like these we can only invoke oh Him because we humans have limited capabilities to stop this natural calamities. I know we are to be blamed from these flooding because of our inability to see things beforehand. That is why when given this crisis we are only awakened by our ignorance and hence we try to pacify things by asking our creator to help us. But you are right in saying we are to be blamed humanity has learned so many lessons in life but I think history repeats itself and we never learn from it until it comes back to us teaching us another lesson in some ways.

I agaree with 100 times and more! I am so happy that there are people thinking how I used to think. I have mentioned the similar fact here for several times. In fact we are in a highly advanced stage and we can do a lot over here as a precaution. People are so upfront to call God, when something happens inappropriate and it become a habit. Two days before here I saw a news article that people are performing special parayers 'pooja' to God of Rains 'Varun' to give more rains as there are short of rains in this year. And last year we had excess of rains and there was no prayers for it. People are so cunning and so mean towards their requirements. First of all, we need to do what we are supposed to do. Insteasd of doing all, and closing our eyes towards the real facts, everyone is running after God to resove the problems. Shame, and the Govts. and people are looting the money, doing nothing to the public, no proper trainage, precautions, plans, actions - nothing and when something happens, they are running after and lamenting for help... No need to say too much and everyone knows it better and no one is eady to do, all want to improve the size of their own pockets and the result is what we had seen now. So, I don't think the authorities will earn any lessons and the sufferer is the poor inefficient people and the mighty will be there on top and nothing will happen to them. So pitty, what else to say...

I believe that rains come from God; but floods are due to our own doing. Unless we learn the principle behind the above-mentioned quote, and unless we start taking responsibilities for our actions and correcting it, this vicious cycle will never end. Years have passed but it seems we have never learned since Ondoy. And about that rh bill thing, oh please. What is this, the middle ages? "Quick, there's an eclipse, God is angry let's sacrifice a virgin!" That's just so sick, clearly indicates that some people's way of thinking still refuses to progress.
