Being able to sleep early has done me wonders, the military style discipline is the most productive step I have taken so far in 2010 lol (I'm hoping there's some productivity tucked back here). I wake up just after 4am a wee bit tired but once I'm up and about I run around like a new born spring chicken on prozac lol (don't laugh).
This month for me will be remembered as the month of Haiti; when the world shook its earth and I pray may Allah subhana wata'ala be with them as they strive to find their loved ones. Though it has been a while since the earthquake took place, people are still being dug up from underneath remnants and collapsed buildings and therefore the search quest te reunite families missing members still continues. Children have lost their parents and extended family members leaving them orphans with nowhere to go. Mothers have lost their husbands in the quake and are left to take care of their children with businesses lost and no income.
Insha Allah lets keep them in our prayers and do as much as we can to help and support them. There are many charities on the ground providing emergency relief. There are around 1 million Haitians that need shelter who have lost their houses. The number for those in need of food, water, sanitation facilities exceeds all possible equasions. The Haitian government is currently planning to relocate 100,000 people just outside of the capital Port-au-Prince but even there the basic needs still exist. The long term needs to rebuild the capital and areas of the island that have become damaged as well as the infrastructure of the country and people's businesses rely on the hope of the world reaching out. Let us do our share, lets give regularly as much as we can to any of the relief agencies operating on the ground.
