“In Times of National Need”
When there are natural or man made tragedies affecting a huge
number of people, it calls for many other caring people to step in offering their
time, necessary help and to give as much assistance as possible. Sometimes it might not be quite as much
assistance as needed, but it should always be as much as available and as
soon as possible.
Naturally, it also
involves much team work and by preferably as many trained individuals, when it’s
at all possible. These times call for responsible
leaders and trained people to help and guide others that volunteer their help
and support.
Any disaster as catastrophic as Katrina or the wild destructive fires in California or in times
of any type of national emergency, both natural or man caused disasters, call for well
trained supervised assistance. This
would cover all forms of organized help supplies and support. Everything from sufficient shelters, food,
ways to prepare the food, safe water, clothing if needed, bathing facilities,
sanitation, plus provide any medical needs to these involved victims.
Some of these people indeed need more help than another's
and this is without question. The less
fortunate, such as the neediest, children, the elderly, and the ill or injured
individuals. Therefore, common sense
says, any and all assisted help is to be offered accordingly.
I'm saying, people do need to try to help out and get
involved to help these people, if and when it is at all possible to do so. This has been and will always be (until the
end of time) the only working method for any successful rebuilding and
survival, when there has been any kind of a devastating disaster.
We need to stick together when times get tough,
reach out to help one another and be a more caring society.
Some of these people that are affected absolutely
do need more help than others. Therefore,
common sense says, any and all assisted help is to be offered accordingly. First and always, assistance goes to the most
needy and sick!
Afterward, and secondly,
assistance will immediately follow by going to the less needy individuals and less
injured. This is the fair, humane and educated way to conduct assistance in times of any disaster.
Yes it is true to say, there are serious mistakes in all
societies, concerning this kind of issue, but we can learn from these same
mistakes, if we sincerely do care to do this.
No society exist that is perfect or without fault.
So
let’s try harder to learn from our past
history and past mistakes! Lets go on
from here with a more educated approach. Remembering the things we have
learned about these situations. These times where it calls for us all
to be a real team and try to give in to the needy that must try to
rebuilding from nothing at all, rebuild after these dreadful
disasters of any kind both natural or man made.
We all need to play a
more serious part in supporting
and helping out a broken city, or a twin tower tragedy, or a population
disaster
of any type.
“We should and we will help our fellow man in their time of
need and in their time of misfortune.”
