Let's Help "Typhoon Haiyan: Super typhoon Yolanda" Victims in The Philippines

It's so heartbreaking to hear sad stories of some Yolanda victims, how they were being separated from their wives, children, parents and relatives only to find out after, that some of their family members didn't manage to survive. 

One Husband cried for forgiveness to her wife's family for not being able to save his wife and kids...oh it broke my heart into pieces while watching that news. People are screaming for foods, water, and shelter. Still, some remote areas are not accessible, think about the situation they are in right now. I can't stop my tears from falling while watching the news from different TV networks. Below is a photo from Manila Bulletin, a woman’s body is found floating in a flooded street, also in Tacloban. (Linus Escandor II).

The partial and unofficial death count as of the present arises to 1700 from the Super typhoon Haiyan aka Super typhoon Yolanda which ruined entire villages, cities in the Philippines particularly TACLOBAN CITY which is most devastated by the super typhoon. Pag-Asa officials warned the people about Yolanda-possibly could be the nation's most detrimental recorded natural catastrophe. 

I can't imagine the emotions, the feelings of the families left by the victims of Yolanda. It is with much importance for them to know the whereabouts and find their missing loved ones, so I gathered these links to Yolanda missing person's inquiries:

• Google Person Finder
• GMA Person Finder

What Can You Say About This Article???

This article was written by Jim Solouki, surely he doesn't know anything about GOD.

"God is punishing the Philippines!"

Greetings True Christians!!

Did you know that God is punishing the Philippines for their tolerance of homosexuality, prostitution, Catholicism, and other sins? The Philippines are about to feel God’s wrath in the powerful form of a cyclone so great that the world has never experienced one of this intensity. If those of you in the Philippines had repented, you would not need to be punished. But you tolerate prostitution, homosexuality, and adultery, and God will make an example of you.

God’s hand at work

Pay heed to this coming disaster, True Christians. God can and will punish the wicked. After all, he killed everyone on Earth besides Noah and his family with the Flood. God detests wickedness and hates sin. God will, when He feels like it, bring about the death of sinners by His hand to quickly toss them into Hell. God hates the wicked, and the wicked will die by His hand so that they may be punished eternally in Hell.

                                    the wrath of God is at hand.

The True Faithful in the Philippines will survive this trial. However, sinners will continue to perish unabatedly by God’s hand through this super-typhoon named Haiyan. God has killed at least 1200 heathens with Haiyan, and there may be more to come! Join with me, my brothers and sisters in Christ, to pray that God’s plan of retribution against the heathens and sinners will be complete. God will bring complete devastation upon the Philippines, and they will be wiped clean.

 a sinner unsaved

Do not cry to God for mercy now, you sinful heathens. You have already rejected Him, and now that you face impending punishment, there is nothing that you can do. God will not help you now. God hates the Philippines, as is clear by the impending cyclone. Repent, sinners, or you may be next on God’s hit list!

I will be praying for you.

Yours in Christ,

Jim Solouki"

Really? God is punishing the Philippines? The country Philippines isn't the only country packed with sinners, we'll be very hypocrite if we say we haven't committed a single sin our entire life. There are other countries and I hate to mention a name so better not mention anything, who are even worst sinners than my country. Let us all reflect, this is God's reminder to us that no matter how powerful, how wealthy we are, we are nothing without HIM.

The Philippines was so much devastated by Typhoon Yolanda, the least we can do if we have nothing to good to say or donate, is to pray for all the victims and their loved ones who survived the tragedy.

All Cried Out by Allure

Are you broken hearted, dumped and neglected by some stupid man? Well this song will describe all that hurt you felt deep inside. Whenever I listen to this very heart crashing song I can't help but feel sad, lol making fool of myself. I can feel the emotions of the singer. 

Songwriters: Hutson Jr., Lee / Scott, Jill / Force, Full / Moody, Barry

[Allure]

All alone on a Sunday morning

Outside I see the rain is falling, whoa

Inside I'm slowly dying 

But the rain will hide my crying, crying, crying

And you...

Don't you know my tears will burn the pillow

Set this place on fire 

'Cause I'm tired of your lies

All I needed was a simple "Hello"

But the traffic was so noisy that you could not hear me cry

(I)I gave you my love in vain

My body never knew such pleasure 

My heart never knew such pain

(And you) You leave me so confused

Now I'm all cried out, over you

[112]

Ooohh

Cryin' over you, yeah

Never wanted to see things your way

Had to go astray

Oh why was I such a fool (Why was I such a fool?)

Now I see that the grass is greener

Is it too late for me to find my way home

How could I be so wrong?

[Allure](( Happens during last 2 verses of 112's part))

Leaving me all alone

Don't you know my tears will cause an inferno

Romance often fades

Why should I take the blame?

You were the one who left me neglected (So sorry baby)

Apology not accepted

Add me to the broken hearts you've collected

I gave you all of me (Gave you all of me)

How was I to know

You would weaken so easily

I don't know what to do (I don't know what to do)

Now I'm all cried out (All cried out)

Over you

I gave you my love in vain

My body never knew such pleasure

My heart never knew such pain

And you

[112]

You left me so confused

[Allure & 112]

Now I'm all cried out( all cried out)

Now I'm all cried out( all cried out)

Over you

[112]

So sorry baby, please forgive me

Please forgive me

Hard to Say I'm Sorry by Yuna Ito

I stumbled upon this video on YouTube, a cover of Chicago's "Hard to Say I'm Sorry" by Yuna Ito. I listened to her version and I loved it. I adore her even before and I adore her more after hearing her cover.

Everybody needs a little time away
I heard her say, from each other

Even lovers need a holiday

Far away from each other

Hold me now

It's hard for me to say I'm sorry

I just want you to stay

After all that we've been through

I will make it up to you

I promise to

And after all that's been said and done

You're just a part of me I can't let go

Couldn't stand to be kept away

Just for the day, from your body

Wouldn't want to be swept away

Far away from the one that I love

Hold me now

It's hard for me to say I'm sorry

I just want you to know

Hold me now

I really want to tell you I'm sorry

I could never let you go

After all that we've been through

I will make it up to you

I promise to

And after all that's been said and done

You're just a part of me I can't let go

And after all that we've been through

I will make it up to you

I promise to

You're going to be the lucky one

I'm Sorry!

English Translation

You and the end of summer and the dreams of the future 

And our big hope, I won't forget them. 

I believe that we will meet  

In August 10 years later. 

The best memories...

Our meeting was made in a moment at the intersection walking home. 

You called out to me, didn't you? "Let's go home together." 

While I embarrassedly hid my face with my bag, 

In truth, I was very, very happy.

Ah, the way the fireworks beautifully bloom in the sky is a bit lonely. 

Ah, the wind flows along with time.

So happy, having so much fun, we had so many adventures 

Inside the secret base that belonged to the two of us.

You and the end of summer and the dreams of the future 

And our big hope, I won't forget them. 

I believe that we will meet in August 10 years later. 

I knew that you screamed "Thank You" from the bottom of your heart till the very end. 

A goodbye when you hold back your tears and smile is lonely, isn't it. 

The best memories...

Ah, summer break will be over in a little longer too, so 

Ah, the sun and moon get along.

So sad, so lonely, we had so many fights 

Inside the secret base that belonged to the two of us.

I knew that you screamed "Thank You" 

From the bottom of your heart till the very end. 

A goodbye when you hold back your tears and smile is lonely, isn't it. 

The best memories...

There's nothing I can do about the sudden change of schools, 

So I'll write letters, I'll call you, so please don't forget about me 

Forever, inside the secret base that belonged to the two of us.

I was talking to you for so long at the end of summer 

After we watched the sunset, we gaze at the stars. 

I will never forget the teardrops that flowed down your cheeks. 

I'm sure I will never forget 

That you waved your hand with all your strength to the end. 

So let me be inside this dream like this for eternity...

You and the end of summer and the dreams of the future 

And our big hope, I won't forget them. 

I believe that we will meet in August 10 years later. 

I knew that you screamed "Thank You" from the bottom of your heart till the very end. 

A goodbye when you hold back your tears and smile is lonely isn't it. 

The best memories...

The best memories...

Endless Story (Male Version)

OMG! I just found a male version of this awesome song Endless Story by Yuna Ito in Youtube. I am kind of like listening to Ken Hirai's voice ..but actually he's not the one in the male version. The lyrics are the same but the song was beautifully sung! I am wondering who's behind the version, I'll be searching for him until I found out who.

On the other hand, Endless Story was the first single released by Yuna Ito. and at the end of 2005, was named the "Best Love Song of 2005" by the Oricon magazine. I first heard this song way back 2005 and been singing it all my life..got hooked and can't get over. Everytime I listen to the song, memories overflow my thoughts lol. If anyone knew who sung the male version please leave a comment onegaishimasu!

Here's a link to the original version: Endless Story by Yuna Ito
