Earthquake


Friedrich
Sublime nature.....

February 27th, 2010.....3:30 a.m....I woke up beacause I always do it when there is going to be an earthquake, or the most part of the time...When everything started to move, I was sure that it would passed like always, but when I realised that the movement was more prolongade and stronger I stand up from my bed and run to my mother's room (my sister was sleeping with my mother that night), and I almost shout her that we must to run to the backyard. And I don't know, the earthquake was so long that my mother turned off the alarm, she had enough time to do that! xD. When we were passing trough the corridor, I lost my balance and fell down, that was funny too. At the backyard, I saw everything was literatly jumping up and down, the trees, the plants, the walls, and I heard my neighbours cups and drink bottles falling down and crashing with the floor, and I saw how the light pole or post, I don't know what is the correct word, was exploting and seen it, was like the end of the word to mee. When everything stopped, we went out to the street to met with my neighbours and checked if all was in their places, the light obviously fell down (is that correct?), then we turn on the car's radio BIOBIO, and realised the magnitues of the earthquake, we were so shocked at that time.
The romantic nature in all their magnificent, we are nothing, so fragile in this big universe, in this country we are lost if we had a war or something like that, and we learned that with the earthquake, is just to break the highway and we are incomunicated, just to colapsed the phone lines and we are lost. Nothing works, not even the army, the navy, all is so confused, we must to learn about emergency things, we must to learn about the nature, read the nature, interpretate the nature....and don't trust in people that don't look so sure about what to do at the instant....trust a little more in instints.
