Last Saturday, it was one week before Christmas Eve
While I was struggling to complete my Christmas list
Our countrymen from Northern Mindanao were trying to save their
properties
While were safely tucked inside our homes, they’re struggling for their
lives
Everyday news only shows how bad the situation is with dead bodies
everywhere
I remember I talked to a friend last time and I said why my heart seems
to be like a rock
Tried and tested by time, hardened by the circumstances
But seeing children lost their lives while their bodies were held by
the mourning parents
Surely, only a rock won’t cry.
In times like this, Filipinos always manifest a great spirit full of
hope
That in every crisis we’re always ready to stand up from the fall
Even those who just have enough tried to help and for sure
A little help won’t hurt
A lot of people helped and were helping but more help is needed
With our prayers and little donation, no matter how small when put
together
Will help sustain life and bring hope
This maybe one of the saddest Christmas but now is also the right
time
To show the true spirit of what we’re celebrating.
For those who are willing to help, 7 eleven branches are accepting
donations,
just approach the crew on the counter and they will give you your
official receipt

convenient for you.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
