Ohh, how the loss of so many lives are causing pains and heartache in many households.

Indeed!

And when someone really close, or even someone you are just acquainted with, is lost in this way, the gravity of this turmoil is too much to bear.

I genuinely hope that no one has to go through this experience. It can change our entire perception of life.

As Suheir Hammad so rightfully said:

"... Life is a right, not collateral or casual ..."

Life is too precious to be lost this way :((

I will not dance to your drummed up war.
I will not
pop
spin
break for you.
I will not hate for you
or
even hate you.
I will not kill for you.
Especially
I will not die for you
(Suheir Hammad)
