當這樣的事情發生在親近的家人身上，
總是令人特別覺得驕傲。
我們的小小舉動可以幫助到別人
讓別人擁有美好的一天甚至更久
我的小表妹，你是最棒的!!!
Today I volunteered with Team Rubicon to help with the disaster relief from Hurricane Sandy in Rockaway, a beach town in Queens, NY. Every single one of these homes were flooded and there is still no power in the area. I cannot begin to explain the devastation of the hurricane, and my pictures won't do it justice. The best that I can do is share with you all a story from today... We were walking from house to house to help the residents clean up/take out the damaged furniture in their homes. I approached a woman in her mid 50s as she was carrying out a piece of her bed frame and I said 'Ma'am, please let me help you with that.' she paused and turned to look at me. Tears immediately filled her eyes and she grabbed my arm and said 'thank you so much, but I really need to do this for myself'. I cannot even imagine losing everything overnight and I was speechless because I knew if that happened to me, I would have wanted to do the same. Please keep the victims of this disaster in your thoughts and prayers. If you feel like you want to do something to help but are not in the area, please donate to Team Rubicon. They are doing an amazing job helping the citizens of Rockaway beach. BTW- Some extremely inconsiderate people are actually looting these homes in the middle of the night.
