Death - an irreversible, unimaginable and unavoidable truth. It can come in any form. The Palestine carnage not so long ago brought me to think about death - rather after death.
What is the difference between anyone who lost life at the Taj or who loses life under a speeding blue line. The trauma-the helplessness if those left behind or the horrors associated with the event, the outcome of which was the death-are these all.
Perhaps so. The trauma, the anxiety is temporary. It lasts 5-10 years (of course for some it might last last a life time as well)
What remains is a vacuum, an emptiness. You can flow with the tide of the world, participate in its theaters, but somewhere deep within an irrational ever questioning emptiness persists

death in its typical sense is not an ultimate loss.when u r "alive" and relationships die,change in nature it is far far more painful. when people closest to your heart drift away,you stretch out your arms and there is only vaccum.in death you know ,you were loved u were close,you close your eyes and u feel the presense in spite of not being present physically present.if someone is close to the heart but geographically far,it doesnt matter.but u r full of love for a person and you r made to feel that you dont matter,has no consolation.death is an ultimate truth.it has to come one day.there is no escape.die in war,die in peace,but till i "live" allow me to b loved and wanted.perhaps this is the only thing every heart craves for
