Please bear with me on the following messages, because it was difficult for me to make a decision to post them but I have to:
1. "Stars are coming down from above."
2. After the flooding there will be different kind of illnesses that come out of it. Please be aware of this.

Philippines searches for hundreds missing, typhoon kills 500
ReutersReuters – 34 mins ago
CAGAYAN DE ORO, Philippines (Reuters) -
Rescuers searched for more than 450 people still missing in the southern Philippines on Sunday after flash floods and landslides swept houses into rivers and out to sea, killing more than 500 people in areas ill-prepared to cope with deadly storms.
Cagayan de Oro and nearby Iligan cities on Mindanao island were worst hit when Typhoon Wasi slammed ashore while people slept late on Friday and early Saturday, sending torrents of water and mud through villages and stripping mountainsides bare.
The Philippine National Red Cross (PNRC) estimated 532 people were killed in eight provinces in the southern Mindanao region, with more than 450 still missing.
"Our office was swamped with hundreds of requests to help find their missing parents, children and relatives," Gwendolyn Pang, secretary-general of the PNRC, told reporters. "We're helping coordinate the search with local government, army, police and even other aid agencies."
Floods washed away entire houses with families inside in dozens of coastal villages in Cagayan de Oro and Iligan.
