In Indonesia, living with the volcano is part of who we are. The fortune is a symbol of the place where the gods stay. We don't know when; we don't know why, but at some point they just awaken.

The condition inside the camps is not easy. Many of us have been forced to leave our homes. We don't know for how long, but as Indonesian people, we are strong, and we will continue to pray. God will show us the way for us to be free from the volcano.

We must not fear its presence; instead, we must respect the gods. We're taking care of our environment, taking care of our people. But still, we can never know when the gods will awaken.
