Cyclone Gonu

A cyclone that hit Oman on 06.06.2007, it was devastating,alhamdulilah there were warnings long before and leaves were given during those days for most employees and all schools, so thanks to Allah, death was not very high,but the country was terribly affected in general.

My son was seven months, the rain wasn't stopping, our house was surounded by a fast flowing flood that takes everything on its way, it was raining continuously, the water reached the last step of the house (I was at my parents' house as my hubby was out of the country). It is a single-story house. I wore my Abaya, I thought it was our last day.I only thought of my little boy I am carrying. I only wanted him to survive.But just when the flood was making its way to the inside our house, the rain stopped...subhana Allah..we survived the cyclone, most of the people survived,,some houses were flooded to the roof of the third floor,some houses demolished as if they were never there once...the capital looked at those days as if it was in the sixties and seventies,but destroyed...

a reminder of how short this life is,and nothing remains the same...
