FLOODS

I was walking home carrying all things I bought from the market yesterday. When I happened to read from a newspaper displayed at the sidewalk stated "Floods in good and bad days." Isn't that alarming that even there’s no typhoon, floods are here in some parts of our country and also in other parts of the world? It flashbacks into my mind when I was young, that a super typhoon is only the threatening calamities that would damage lives and properties of the people. I never heard my grandparents told a story about floods on me when I was at the age where I can understands what's happening around the environment. And a flood nowadays is not an ordinary flood where you can wait to subside at a very short time. Come to think where this water came from. And water really came from nowhere and it came at the time where you can't protect yourself of the damages. Flood waters in any directions roaring as if angry of human beings who still abusing Mother Nature. But I think in my little way of understanding, the over population somehow contribute to cause floods. When we are over populated, even portion of bodies of water are being covered and converted into residential areas. As of this moment I can't imagine what to do for myself and my family if another Noah's Ark will be floating again because of what we are doing to our mother nature "Earth."
