Be Prepared for a Natural DisasterAccounts of those who have survived tragedy and catastrophe, no matter the crisis, demonstrate that survival is as much a state of mind as a state of being. Fortitude, determination, a cool head and confidence constitute a priceless part of any survival plan,and when necessary, supplies are available--success!
Wherever we live on the planet, we can be suddenly and unexpectedly confronted with survival issues. Earthquake country, volcano country, tornado alley, flood, hurricane or even social unrest--we are all vulnerable and mortal. Staying alive is instinctive for most living creatures, but staying alive in a shipwreck would be difficult without a life raft, a life buoy or a life boat. Someone planned ahead. Someone planned for the unexpected emergency. You and I need to do the same, but sensibly and affordable. Here is a sample,affordable, workable plan~-act on it~act immediately! Purchase two 5-gal. buckets with lids. They are ideal for your basic survival plan. (Be careful to preserve the lids intact.) A "Day Pack" is also advisable. These buckets are easily transported. By that I mean they may be tossed into the trunk or back seat of the automobile for a quick escape, or they may be carried by hand or even worn as a back pack. They are moisture and vermin proof--in short they are ideal for the plan outlined below. And, they can be used to carry and store water. Every item listed here was-purchased in a Department, Camping and Surplus Store, Supermarket, Health Food Store or your local Herbal Shop. Time is precious----Time is survival and you are buying time!. Time you can use to travel and relocate, if necessary~time to have power or other social services restored--buying time for others to rescue you if necessary. You may not be able to get all the items on this list at one time, but start today to build your day pack and fill buckets for your own peace of mind. Check off items as you obtain them |
