I was appalled by the devastation and loss of life caused by the earthquake that struck China on 12 May 2008. The earthquake, magnitude 7.9 Mw, equals to 600 million tons of TNT, with its epicenter in Wenchuan County, Sichuan province of China.
Official figures (as of 15 May) state that about 20,000 (including 19,509 in Sichuan province) are confirmed dead and 102,100 injured. Tens of thousands are missing, many of them trapped, buried, and eight provinces were affected.
We are all brothers and sisters in the one same family of human earthlings. My thoughts and heart are with all the victims and their families and friends.
I would like to express my deep sorrow and sadness towards the victims of this terrible tragedy.
May those that have passed beyond,
Find their way to heaven with ease.
May those that still suffer,
Find hope and courage they need to survive.
May those who have been left behind,
Find healing and comfort for mind and body.
May those who have gone to give aid and assistance
Find the strength they need to rescue victims.
No doubt, the death and destruction wrought by the earthquake is huge. But this catastrophe has also brought a feeling of human kinship across the globe.
Please show our human concern through our generous donations for the assistance of the unfortunate victims of this tragedy.
