Tweeps Remember Tsunami

On hashtag #2004TsunamiMemories tweeps poured in with memories of one of the worst nightmares of Sri Lanka.

Here are some select tweets - that blends all the emotions (the good, the bad and the ugly), facts and impact on Sri Lankan society. I guessed this is way better than a detailed blog.

Its a disaster which thought us that beautiful things can be devastating at times too. #2004tsunamimemories

A friend of mine became a victim. Luckily her father later found her among the dead bodies in a hospital, unconscious. #2004TsunamiMemories
