Tragedy Struck
By Mark Flippo
SAMPOONG DEPARTMENT STORE COLLAPSE, 1995
During construction of the department store, engineers used the flat slab construction’ method, and did not use beams to support the weight of the floors. Supporting columns, meanwhile, only measured 60 cm (2 ft) in diameter as opposed to the standard 80 cm ( 2.8 ft). The building collapsed on June 29, 1995, killing 502 people and injuring 937. Building owner Lee Joon was sentenced to ten and a half years in jail after being convicted with criminal negligence.
Tragedies that are taking many lives at one time are multiplying! These get our attention and we are touched and give an out pouring of compassion! We should help more often but sometimes we get desensitized with all we see on TV. Jesus help my heart to always be open so you can move me to help where I can.
Help me to have compassion like you did on all of us! Help me to surrender my will to you and help me to remember that you are the reason I am here today! Love without works is dead. Forgive me for anytime I have ever been unkind or insensitive! Help me to always put you first in my thoughts! I Love you very much! Let your will be done around the world! May I be your Friend always! Love Mark.
