In the papers, I read of heroic acts by normal people, trying to help others who were affected by the earthquake in Szechuan, China. Indeed, there are many heros amongst us, if only they have a chance to show their good side.
Many people may lament about the reason for these natural disasters that had happened recently, however, it seems that God does have His reason for letting some things happen. If we take a step back, we will realise that it is through seeing how small we are when compared to Mother Nature, how easily we can be wiped out in a few minutes or even seconds, that we are put back into our place on earth. We are not almighty, we are not everlasting. Hopefully, the survivors and the rest of the world would learn to treasure the things that matter in eternity...and not only care about their jobs or the house they live in or the cars they drive...and start to care about more important things...things that REALLY matter.
