Tsunami....man! I thought it a japanese food.

Man! didn't quite know these things and it is worst than the terrorist attack of 911 and Bali combined. Who would have think that this thing can caused so much deaths and suffering. My heart goes out to those who had suffered one way or the other. In one minute, the lifes of so many people changed for the worst. Suddenly so many widows, widowers and orphans. Rich, poor, young, old, female or male....none is spared when the tide hits. The force of nature, the act of god or whatever name and ways you can called this moment...it does not make a different. So it is a sad day for many people.
Now....understand that the Sri Lanka and the Burmese temples are asking for donations be it old clothing, food stuffs, anything that can help the victims or money. I will do my part with clothing and water purifers. These water purifers will help to give clean water to these people. I still have about 150 units or sets. I will divide these up and donates accordingly. I losed about 10K in this venture....guess now is the best tme to do something especially when I am damn tight in the pocket at the present moment. School books and uniforms.
I remembered a saying from Mother Theresa....for donation, must donate till you feel the pain. Yes! by doing this of donating the entire stock.....the nagging from my wife and sister will be deafening. Still believe I do the right thing to give away these items then keeping all these in the storeroom. I can closed up the company too and bring the whole venture to a close then to continue losing money all the times. ( paid for company address, storage and taxs ) and spending time to do the annual accounting even when losing money.
So guess I do the right and correct thing.

Yes! it is so sad to see the news on TV showing people with so much suffering....looking for their love ones both dead or alive. Children crying, parents crying and even me is crying in my heart just looking at the news.
I can't understand why is happen....anyway it has happened and I tried to help whatever way I can. Collecting and sending used clothing from friends to the temples.
