Chennai floods that occurred this time made quite a bit of impact on the Imdian population across the globe. First my prayers to the families who have lost the dear ones ..it is definitely a big loss to the family and my sincere prayers for the departed souls to rest in peace. For people who were admitted to hospital and people in medically critical condition these floods are definitely bad timing. Looking into the Chennai floods I am touched about the humanity being exposed. It even makes me to think that almighty wanted to give a break to the so called ‘Busy’ people to look into life’s perspective even closer. There was a lovely posts in social media which said one has house but not able to live, one has car but not able to drive, one has money in ATM but not able to spend etc.,It is not the material that counts but it is the humaity that wins over.
Mother nature wants attention of the general public and hence created floods of this magnitude and brought people closer. Look into the number of people who pitched in, how many non profit organizations came in for relief, how many celebrites shed their image and wanted to help, how many companies agreed to sponsor money, amount of prayers that occurred during this tenure, even poor and needy who were not affected by the floods did their part, people from low income did their best, rehabilitation efforts occurred, list goes on and on. But to summarize there was so much positivity in the air and people wanted to do their share of help to help the affected people. This is what makes human beings special ..Religious events brings the same spirit and it was absolutely fantastic to witness same kind a spirit during a natural calamity.
People also have the tendency to point fingers and blame one another …I don’t think any government will be prepared for this calamity since the way system works in India. It is rights of every citizen to come and bring a change and that is exactly what happened in chennai. Youth poured in and proved they just don’t stop with dance clubs but given a chance they also can help for a social cause.
This could very well be a beginning of a new era ..people helping each other is the solace for any problem beyond medical advancements and technologies. The basic bonding that connects us is more important than religion, caste, etc., I just hope and pray that once the holiday season is over people still continue to help each other in rehabilitation efforts. End of the day Humanity wins !!!!
