Do you know the feeling?

 Do you know the feeling of being worried for your loved ones then you can't do anything?

We are aware about the coming of typhoon haiyan to our country. The government and the local authorities had done their job so everybody would be safe of this super typhoon Yolanda , local name of Haiyan. I called my parents last night reminding them to evacuate and go to a safe place but my father refused. He is confident that they are safe in our house since it is not made by light materials. But this morning when I called again. I talked to my nephew, he was panicked and he told me that the wind is so strong and the last words he said is our house had collapsed and he was hit by a hard material on his head. And he kept on telling me that they were trap. Then the lines cut. I can't contact them anymore. I was panicked. I opened the net to find someone to talk to. But I find no one. I saw some updates in one of the facebook friends but even he doesn't know what is happening in our place. Until now I cant contact them. Our place is totally blackout. All lines were shutdown. I am still waiting somebody who could give me some updates or it will be good if I talk to them so that I would feel ok. I am so worried of the video I watched online. I just wish and Pray all them is good. No matter what happened to our house the most important is they are safe. This is now the result of the typhoon.

    I know the feeling - you need to do something but your hands are tied or you are so helpless and you are in such a dilemma.
