In a very short period of several months into the year of 2011, scores of natural disasters and socio-political unrests in the middle east have tainted the hope of a peaceful and a good year for humanity.
Japan's earthquake has killed more than 10,000 and the death toll is expected to reach beyond 20,000. Hundreds of billions dollars are lost due to the quake. Nuclear reactor woe in Fukushima plant has only further worsen the properous nation of Japan. While kind and generous individuals and charitable organizations across the globe raise funds and provide aides, what kind of aide / help have we heard from huge profit-making multinational giant company like Toyota, Honda, Sony...etc? The only news I heard from the profit giants were only delays of reopening manucfacturing plants in Japan and minimizes loses due to the quake.
These corporate companies making billions of dollars a year have not pledge publicly how they would contribute to the disaster, while leaving the task of humanitarian aide and help of a leading role to charitable organisations struggling to raise a million or two dollars from ordinary and kind individuals in response to this much bigger than expected disaster in Japan.
All of us should not give up hope, live daily by thanking God, treasuring the blessings He bestowed on us daily as well as the friends and family that love us dearly. Make beautiful memories and build genuine relationships as we put selfishness, greed, wealth and power in a lesser priority in our life.
After what use if a person gain the entire world and lost his soul? as mentioned in the Bible. Therefore, live a fruitful life, a life for God and others. For those who doesnt believe in the existence of God, live a life for others...
That's all I have to say this time.
Joshua
