Today, an earthquake hit my home in the South Pacific. Along with that were five 10-foot tsunamis that washed almost all the coastal areas and villages. Over 100 people were reported dead from both American and Western Samoa. May God be with my people. Please keep them in your prayers and thoughts as they go through these rough times. It's so hard being away from family during times like these. You really don't know what to feel. I hate feeling helpless. However, my family is okay, but I did lose some really good friends today. May God be with those families who have lost loved ones through this tragedy. If you wanna read more... just google it. It's all over the news.
A song to think about as we go through these hard times. Samoa will always be beautiful in my eyes. Samoa la'u pele moni.
My Beautiful Samoa
La'u Samoa e matalasi,
ua siosiomia e le sami
Atumauga lanu lau'ava,
feoa'i fiafia o ou tagata
ch :
La'u Samoa la'u Samoa ea,
le Atua o lou fa'avae e moni lea
Le ao o lou Malo tali i lagi,
Samoa ea i malo aufa'atasi
Tu lata oe i le Ekueta (equator),
e mafanafana foi e le vevela
Soo se mea aua le popole,
e mamulu mai ile faamolemole
Malie toa ua malo tau,
o nai upu fa'ala'ei'au
Sema ane so ta taeao,
Samoa lo ta va'a ia sao
May God bless American Samoa. Samoa muamua le Atua! (Samoa, put God first!)
