People shall always unite as one big family in face of
disasters. When Hurricane Harvey hit Texas, Reader's
Digest wrote about impressive rescues. The spirit of serving can be
incredibly 1. Here is a story from Annalysa
Longworth, a survivor of Hurricane Maria, in her own 2.
“The total 36 hours of Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico was 3 the scariest event we've ever gone through.
Our house sits on the north-west coast of Rincon. In the 4, over 100 mph winds changed direction
causing a great amount of water flooding our 5. The only place left dry and safe was
our kitchen floor, where we were6 to ride out the rest of the storm. It has been
50 days since the 7, and we are still without power and
water. During our regular afternoon showers, we are glad to 8 rainwater but are quickly reminded of the
people living without roofs, and how 9 it must be for them. Our emotions are
consistently in a state of 10.
Recently, our good friends told us about a video interview
they were doing with Watts of Love, a solar light company. The company
generously gave us a headlamp for our personal 11 and a box with 50 headlamps to distribute
throughout our town. Rincon was completely blacked out so making a simple walk
through a parking lot to our car is 12. We used to rush to get things done
before 13, but now I continue daily chores in the
dark. What 14 our lives most was being able to share this
gift with others. We 15 the lamps house by house to the people in the
mountains who needed them most, as even batteries and candles are 16 there. Even though 17 have come slowly, people have been out of work
and can't afford to 18 their electric bill. I'll always be 19 to Watts of Love for allowing us to pay it
forward and be witnesses to the smiles that 20 can bring.”
