Looks like every now and then we get tremors. It has become something of a norm, you know. The big one was on the day after Christmas and now, tremors are a thing that is almost a way of life especially when there is no lives lost. Some people even felt it and think, 'Oh, another one of those tremors' and go on with their lives without so much as another blink.
Is it a good thing or is it foolishness to be so complacent? It's good not to be fearful but then shouldn't we be mindful? On second thought, thankful too that it wasn't another big like like that day on 26 December 2004? Seems people have short memories, very short memories. Or is it that life goes on? Indeed, life has to go on for the living but haven't we learnt something out of the past? Shouldn't we have learnt something? If not, for what happened to those in that December 26 catastrophe been in vain?
What should we have learnt? I guess you are the only one who can answer that for yourself. For the living I can think of a few dozen things we can learn from it. For the dead.... Well, I can't speak for the dead. I don't think I'm qualified to. Your answers could be the turning point in your life or it may not. It's all within the decisions each of us make. Let those be right decisions when we make.
