Now I think life is the most important. Money, carrer is just parts of my life.

Yeah, sometimes people will realize how important life is after they got ‘trial and accident’! They realized just now that there is ‘a super power’ outside human power and basically human is nothing in front of his power! So, if we, human, are still arrogant, really so stupid!

yes , this is it  ,  lin etual .  

infortunately , few how learn from other experiance  ,  they should face such hard time to appreciate what he have of gifts . to appeciate his life  .  

 

and also in such hard time , when there are nopeople and nothing to help ,  the arrogant person who says god is not existed , it is an legend is trusted by weak people . he will say ( please god help me ) 

 

this is what god said in Quran :

 (22)  when ye are in the ships and they sail with them with a fair breeze and they are glad therein, a storm-wind reacheth them and the wave cometh unto them from every side and they deem that they are overwhelmed therein; (then) they cry unto Allah, making their faith pure for Him only: If Thou deliver us from this, we truly will be of the thankful.

(23) But when He delivereth them, behold! they transgress insolently through the earth in defiance of right! O mankind! your insolence is against your own souls, an enjoyment of the life of the Present: in the end, to Us is your return, and We shall show you the truth of all that ye did.

I would feel as sad as you if I were trough that natural disaster and saw all the damages. But this natural event was out of your control, so you can´t do nothing to stop it.

You need to be stronger to support the people or your family around you.

And like a note, if you really want a girlfriend, get her only because you are in love, not because you feel lonely, this is not a good reason to date with somebody, don´t you think?

I know you can fight the sadness, you need to have faith.

For a year??? I think that´s enough time without tell her your feelings man!!!

If you are reallyyyy sure about it, I would recommend you choose a neutral place to tell her without interruptions (not your house neither hers). Why don´t you invite her to go out?? Any place she likes her to go?

Don´t be afraid! Many people don´t say nothing because they´re afraid of a "No" like an answer, but I think is always better tell the truth and not stay quiet without know if the person you love would feel the same.
