The Rescue of Chile's Miners

The recent successful rescue of the trapped 33 miners of San Jose Mine in Chile is truly an amazing feat- a triumph of engineering, crisis management and human endurance. That the 33 miners were alive and appears to be in good physical condition after being trapped almost half a kilometer down the dephts of the earth for more than 69 days is even a more greater achievement.  
The rescue as it unfolds was a gripping spectacle worth watching. I cannot help but mesmerized by the sight of the miners seemingly popping out. It is exhilarating to watch as the miners one by one emerged from the hole to the waiting arms of their loved ones and rescuers.  The seemingly pure joy that shines on the faces of the miners and love ones after days of waiting and worries is contagious. You too will feel happy and light as you watched.   
The Chilean government deserves a pat on the back for transforming what could have been another worse mining  disaster into a successful rescue event.

Maybe few years from now, from millions of blogger it will turn to billions and billions of blogger and maybe it will be hard to find advertisers.

So guys keep the spirit up because even the smallest and the most ordinary person in the world can do extra-ordinary things to make a little change to them but a big change to the whole world.
