Photos of areas hit by Super Typhoon Yolanda (international name Haiyan) still show the wreckage left by the world's strongest storm, but other snapshots also show hope

MANILA, Philippines – Towns and cities in Leyte, Samar and northern Cebu still bear dismaying traces of the destruction of Typhoon Yolanda (international name Haiyan), which struck Visayas 100 days ago on November 8, 2013. In Tacloban City, wrecked cars lie inside abandoned buildings. In Guiuan, Samar, houses remain roofless surrounding the town’s crumbled church. (READ: Huge needs remain 100 days after Yolanda: UN)

But hope grows between the unlikeliest of places.

Between the debris and wreckage, communities are trying to get back to normal. Children are back at school. Storeowners open shop. Mass is heard at dawn. Public markets are noisy again. Life goes on. – Rappler.com
