Sometime (interview, Marichu Lambino)

This is just seven minutes of it; and please ignore the blog admin’s graphics at the end, there is no next  “disc below” to click at the end of this video, it’s not yet done.

Fifteen minutes of the segment will be uploaded here for review and academic purposes only,  in this site sometime. “Sometime” is general enough – so you won’t say i can’t keep my promises. Youtube and my broadband are taking a long time. The 15-minuter has been uploaded in the youtube account but it’s being “processed”. It will be seen here sometime… sometime this season…sometime this summer…sometime this lifetime… the lifetime of this planet

In the evacuation centers alone of the DSWD, there are 50,000 families trying to keep body and soul together (multiply that by 4 = 200,000 individuals); the World Food Aid Program estimates that about 450,000 individuals lost their loved ones, homes and all their belongings to Typhoon Ondoy (from DZMM’s Tina Monzon Palma, ABS-CBN)

(the Flow Yoga QC teacher pooled contributions from Monday’s ashtanga yoga class and her fees for that day in a fund. KQ earlier that day participated in relief operations in Ateneo, in a mile-long “relay line” of a truckload of mineral water. Del brought clothes and beddings to the drop off center in U.P. Dr. Shelley gave contributions earlier that day. (that early Monday morning, a yoga teacher suggested that we pool our efforts to help in relief operations.)

Monday evening: packed boxes of canned goods, soya drinks, choco drinks, biscuits from the nearby grocery store; brought these the next day to the drop off point in U.P. (GG Hall of UCCP or United Churches of Christ of the Philippines beside the Protestant Church; organized by the U.P. Student Council for survivors of Typhoon Ondoy; donations received by the U.P. Student Council’s Mr. Titus Tan).

a tiny contribution. BB.flowyoga

Today while talking about the participation in the relief operations, a yoga teacher asked me: And why do 240 people have to die, for us to realize our neglect, the state of our ill-preparedness?…

It’s a question that has to be asked now even as we  intensify relief operations.
