vIndianz.com (21 Jan, 2010) — It was as if the earth gave way. The number of bodies that lay scattered when the ground rocked furiously could stay on to remind generations to come as to what nature is capable of when in fury. The 2010 Haiti earthquake that ruined many a life had its epicentre near Leogane, around 25 km west of Port-au-Prince, the Haiti capital. Many perished. Many lost all they had. Dwelling places were reduced to rubble. The images speak a million words, of the pain, the suffering and the human efforts that went into saving what remained. Heart rending scenes from the scene of the catastrophe could well be a pointer to what Mother Earth has in store as humans go on plundering her resources to no extent.
