Hi friends! Today I just wanted to vent a bit regarding the recent events that have been impacting my fellow Puerto Ricans.
I'm pretty sure most of you have heard how the island has been experiencing recurring earthquakes since the end of December; ironically they began right after I left the island. Anyway, it's just crazy!! the southern part have been feeling over 20+ tremors on a daily basis. This is a screen shot of part of yesterday's recording by the earthquake.usgs.gov and it must be so scary for the people in the south of the island.
I must say that the resilience of the people there is just amazing and if you hear of any organization collecting help for the island please contribute since that help will probably get there quicker than the island's government help. The local government is unfortunately extremely unorganized and due to this the federal aid is always slow coming. Of course all you will hear in the fake news networks will be how the president is always at fault. Unfortunately the lack of competence is the problem and let me not even get into the various individuals politicizing the situation to attack the current administration.
However, the point of this post is one for me to vent a bit (sorry, but a must!) and if you can aid in any way, please do and a deep, heart felt THANK YOU, but make sure it's a legit operation and don't believe all being reported "politically angled " by the news.
'Till next one friends.
