I just found out recently that one of my aunt has passed away from the earthquake. She was a young woman, very sweet, and loved by my family over in China very much. At the time of the news, I thought to myself, "Everyone in the family survived but her. I just wish she could be alive so that I no longer have to offer my prayers to those in China". But of course, morally, I'd say, "She's just one of many victims, I should wish the earthquake never happened at all". While other natural disasters in the passed decade had barely made me shed a tear, this is the first time I've actually been affected by it through a relative that I have actually met in the pass summer.
For those who've ever experienced something like this (many of you may have from one disaster or another), how did you feel?
