Entry 51: Typhoons cause floods...
Typhoons cause floods. No man is an island. We can either be a mansion island of the indifferent rich or shanty island of the hopeless poor. Yet the islands of the rich and poor can jointly open towards solidarity - a change of mindset for the rich getting out of its comfort zone and the poor to getting out of it's despair. Typhoons and pandemic give so much occasions to live fraternity and charity. Us rich and poor joining in hands towards the spirit of bayanihan needing to have a face - the face of those closest to us, of others who are in need and those who can help. Charity isn't theoretical; it has a face and names in of both giver and recipient as they help each other in friendship. We clearly see Christ for Christ to know we are brothers and sisters open to all "Fratelli tutti" Dare to be God's heart in this world.
