The Effects of Earthquakes

 Earthquake have a big impact on our locality, building and mental state. Especially the recent earthquake on 10/10/25 that happened without any warning. When earthquake occurs, building developed cracks, object falls, and roads or power lines may be damaged. These effect interrupt classes, works, and daily life's, which makes life difficult for the people in our community. 

Based on my experience, I felt scared and anxious during an earthquake because of a sudden shaking of the ground. My mind would go blank because I did not know how long it would last. After an earthquake I would stay alert because of possible aftershocks. Many people in our area shared the same anxiety, children, and elderly people.

Overall, earthquake affects many things not only the building but also the mental state of every people who experience it. It reminds us to be prepared by knowing safety measures and having emergency supplies ready anytime. Earthquake may not be prevented but we can still minimize it by being prepared, with this we can reduce negative effects in our locality.
