Reflection Zamboanga Seige

Zamboanga Seige and Me As I was scanning my Facebook newsfeed, a post form my sister enamored me and in that post she was asking if it is dead on target that the members of the MNLF group were able to enter our city. I can unruffled remember the legal opinion I felt that dawn, the feeling that I dont know where to put myself because my mom, dad, siblings, niece, nephew and relatives atomic number 18 staying at Tugbungan an adjacent barangay to Barangay Mariki using speedboat. Aside from that I am trembling because of the fear internal and out of my system.That was Just the start of the 20 days and counting sleepless nights I and my family experience. On the succeeding days, it was more slimy and midpoint- stopping. As I hear the gunshots and explosions my shopping center Jumps and stops to beat for a second. l, as a Zamboangena living in this city for 21 years, am not apply to hear and experience such things. From that on, my bypast 20 days was never normal. I am always alert and am living my spiritedness now in fear that one day I might wake up losing someone close to my heart or the barangay where I am staying might also be ttacked.My normal routine like doing my thesis, passing game to school and having quality time with friends and family was release off. With the attack of the MNLF everything for me was shut down from the get on of my thesis to the point our business was posture to be close due to the mop up down of the Zamboanga Port. Everything for me was a mess just despite the frustration, I extended jock by disseminating verified information with Facebook. As a mass communicator, I should make out something despite the crisis we be facing.Since I cannot submit myself to evacuation centers to in person help due to security purpose, what I did was spread helpful information in Facebook and through text messaging. My Facebook feed became a home for information and I flock aside the narcissist inside me which I believe that an At enean should do in measure like this. Although I am heavyhearted that still some of us are insensitive of whats happening around particularly in the city. There are still a number of Ateneans that post non-sense forget and their selfie despite the alarming nd heart breaking event we are facing.Now as every(prenominal) of this continues which is I dont know some(prenominal) more who to believe and who is telling the truth, my life or should I say all of our lives is somehow destroyed especially to the well-nigh affected. All I can do now is hope and pray that this crisis entrust be over and may Allah signalise and guide the decisions of our leaders and lastly forethought their decisions that it will always be for the greater good.
