Stop Blaming and Start Working



The entire nation was shocked when typhoon Sendong hit Misamis Oriental last December 16, 2012- Saturday! That incident devastated the lives of the Filipinos especially Kagay-anons and Iligainons. Innocent lives were killed, properties were destructed, lives were endangered and painful memoirs lingered.

Since a great number of people are affected by Sendong, there are also a bunch of speculations pinpointing unto government officials and private companies operating on mining and logging industries as the individuals who are held accountable of this tragic encounter. There are myriad number of accusations arguing as to who are we going to put the blame on. Some are saying it's a sole responsibility of the city government, while others would say it's everybody's credit to mother nature. Still, the question of blaming remains unanswered.

Whatever it may be, it's just a waste of time to merely blame each other of Typhoon Sendong's tragic visitation. Yes, we are all affected. Emotional dilemma and trauma are inviolably paving the way unto irrational mind-setting. Why don't we just stop blaming and start working for the better? Isn't it wiser that way?
We have to work for the better. Be mindful of our actions. Stay vigilant in our proceedings, for being heedful and wary is the most powerful tool that a man can employ any time. Let us quit in the habit of being indifferent. We are all liable of the underlying consequences, nobody's exempted!

Let us change our previous detrimental lifestyles, be accountable enough, welcome responsibilities embrace more intricate errands and see the world crucially.

Impede culpability and initiate accomplishments!
