Good day/ night dear mylotters. How's everyone doing? i hope you guys have a great day/ night. Just recently, an earthquake occurred in the Philippines, and the earthquake's fault line was located directly in our area. The events were very distressing. We were shaken by a magnitude of 6.9. Numerous homes were damaged, lives were lost, and infrastructures were destroyed. My family and I are currently sleeping in a tent because we were afraid to sleep inside the house due to cracks and the traumatic events that occurred. The Lord has saved my entire family from the disaster, which has made me so grateful to him. We are still burdened with fear and anxiety. Due to the ongoing aftershocks, we will be sleeping in the tent overnight. Thank you for taking the time to read guys. Wishing you a pleasant day. Photo is mine:

We had an earthquake years ago. The whole town came on roads. I was on my way to my home from a bank. I was panicked. However the earthquake lasted only for five seconds or so.

That sounds terrifying. I’m glad the earthquake didn’t last long and that you were safe.

@Shivram59 I’m glad it was only mild and didn’t last long. That must have still been a frightening experience.
