Unless you have been living in Mars, you will probably be aware that the lost of 5 fine gentlemen last week has literally brought Singaporeans to a state of mourning. Although I knew neither of them, from what I read from the media and tributes by their friends, they were very popular with their peers, teachers and even acquaintances.
What got me interested is that they are about my age and had so much to offer in life, so much to look forward to. Like what my grandmother always tell me, I am at the dawn of my life while she is already in her twilight.
To them, their dawns have abruptly and selfishly been drawn to a close. Youth, vigor, strength, love for life are what these super sporty people stand for. In an instant, everything just implodes into nothingness and abject misery for their family members ... Seeing their mothers crying their hearts out brought a few wet spots in my eyes. Nobody deserves to die like that. And nobody deserves to bury their children...
What an understatement it is to mention "Life is so fragile". Somebody upstairs must have made a big big mistake. There are so many terrorists out there who deserves so many death sentences over and yet they are alive and kicking, scheming to hurt more innocent people.
People say things happen for a reason, I tell them to stick it up their rears. Things like that baffle logic and reason. Just hope that time will heal the scars in their parents' hearts.
