.which causes us to ask ourselves “ ARE WE REALLY PREPARED FOR THE UNEXPECTED?”
SOMEBODY IS RESPONSIBLE TO INSURE THAT FAMILIES HAVE A WRITTEN WILL IN PLACE !
As a two month vacationer in Honolulu, Hawaii, this blog writer was awakened at 6 am today by the country’s Civil Defence Alert Alarm Sirens alerting Island residents of the on-coming Tsunami. TV and Radio have been issueing guidance and directions repeatedly asking people to follow the instructions as given.
The TSUNAMI caused by the massive 8.5 earthquake in Chile, South America is due to hit Oahu and Waikiki area about 11:00 am. The Defence Alert people are suggesting only people along shorelines and low lying areas should be seeking to re-locate to higher ground during this alert.
With our 550 room resort filled with Japanese tourists, there is naturaly a high level of anxiety.
Initial reports already revealed more than 130 deaths have occurred at the earthquake site with many more expected, along with injuries in the thousands.
This disaster is one of those unexpected, or out- of- the – blue happenings that often claim the lives of many, and many, ( if not all ) were totally unprepared with their families.
This blog constantly reminds people to prepare written instructions as to what to do with their property, possessions and family by way of a written WILL or LIVING WILL, so that families are protected. The courts almost always honor your written instructions you leave for your families.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all so severly affected.
Another reminder today, there is 23 days until you can take advantage of the American Diabetes Risk Test Day Mar. 23rd.
