Death is where life begins


Its such an intense word, death..
but because its used so often in our media and society, we have become so custom with the word.
Did  we truly forget how to react when we hear "12 children and 33 adults were killed (aka death) in a car bombing"?
Every single person in that homicide had a life. They all had their own memories. Their first holiday, their first loose tooth, their first kiss. But it was all taken away by the blast of the disaster. Their parents/ gaurdians hope who cared for them, their hopes of them one day being someone great, blown away.
THEY ALL WERE SOMEONE.
-We never really pay too much attention to the deaths of others, unless that human was close to us.
Next time i would love for you to put a face and a past on the death of someone you never knew. It makes the death of that person feel much more real; because it is real.
