An unfortunate incident has shocked the whole nation and has caught the attention of the International Community. Eight innocent lives were reportedly ended while less than a hundred were injured by the explosion in one of the beautiful malls in the Philippines, the Glorietta Mall in Makati. The authorities assessed the blasting as an effect of a bomb planted inside the mall. The whole nation is alarmed by the incident fearing that terrorist have come in the open to bring chaos again.
The very moment I heard the news, my aunt came first in my mind. I thought of her because she is fond of going in that mall. Moments later, I received a text message from her. She was indeed in the place but luckily, she left the place half an hour before the explosion.I thanked God that my aunt is safe. However, I pity the innocent lives lost by the malicious bombing and those who were still suffering from burns.
After this incident, I hope the authorities would heighten their security and be alert at all times from the threats of devilish acts.
May the soul of those died rest in peace.:(
