โ The earthquake is not a joke. While many laugh at the thought of suspended classes and celebrate an unexpected day of rest, little do they know that behind every tremor lies a trembling truth. What appears to be a moment of convenience for some, is a moment of fear for others. As the ground shakes, hearts race. Walls crack. Memories of past disasters return. For those who have witnessed homes collapse, lost loved ones, or spent sleepless nights fearing aftershocks, an earthquake is not a reason to laugh; it is a reminder of trauma.
The shaking may last only seconds, but the fear it leaves behind can linger for years. Beneath every joke about cancelled classes is a reality that many endure uncertainty, anxiety, and the haunting question of whether the next tremor will be stronger than the last.
โ
The next time the ground trembles beneath your feet, do not make fun of it just because classes will be suspended or plans will be cancelled. Instead, remember the families who may be praying for their safety, the children whose fear drowns out every sound, and the survivors who relive their worst memories with every shake. Before turning it into a joke, recognize the weight of what it truly is; a reminder that the earth may stop moving, but for some, the trauma never does.
