Tough to leave the devastated place

...One can go to Centerville
(downtown) Port-au-Prince and
see several five to eight story
buildings leaning on one side that
can fall down onto the pubic anytime.

 

Let’s say for seven days in a row, you wake up to see a dire situation around you. When you woke up on the eighth day, you were going to take an airplane to a place, which would be almost like paradise on this earth, as compared to the everyday anguish of the past seven days.


But instead of feeling happy to leave, you have this extreme lingering sadness inside; telling that you should not leave. Maybe there is a way to delay your departure to stay for few more weeks or maybe months or even years, to see this torturous place come out of the ruins.
