Heartfelt condolences

Mother, father, husband, wife, son or daughter they were all. So many lives just in an instant. The friability of life cannot be more real…

The flight was on time, the numbers were sound. There were many who had hoped for this very day to go to a different country for the first time.

That student who burnt the midnight oil or the saw the rising sun for years and with persistence and conviction got the opportunity to go to UK! He or she would have just now tearfully said goodbye to his or her parents and near and dear ones! He or she would have felt gloomy and alone but comforted himself or herself about a bright future. Sadly there is no future…

The young professionals who would have gone for a business deal or for work or simply for better opportunity. Did they get to say goodbye? Well, it does not matter now anyway. All gone up in smokes…

The cute little family excited to go for that international trip! The little ones who could not decide which movie to watch or the older ones who would rather read a book. The mother who was thinking about food and the father who wanted to just catch some sleep. They will never have any troubles now…

The Manager who was unhappy in the economy and the CEO who wanted company in his Business class. The crash does not differentiate…

The crew who were just getting ready for a long haul of endless calls and service and blanket delivery; it does not matter now…

Those poor students who after a gruelling class and work simply wanted a hot meal or at least some meal even if it not home cooked and even if it tastes bad. They will never be hungry now…

All that argument, all that debate, those huge egos and those low self esteems; the crash did not care. It came in an instant and levelled everyone and everything.

My heart goes out to those poor souls. Pray to God to give their families strenght to get over this. Of course you can never get over the loss, but time can make you deal with it. Everytime now when you get on a Plane or even see one, all you can do is say a silent prayer and hope for the best.
