I don’t consider myself a pessimistic person…Really I am not…But, I think this post will prove exact the opposite, as I am going to share some thoughts that hunt me down every now and then and send me to depression's extreme level… I had a fair thought before writing this down, as I don't want to appear like someone who rarely has a good laugh, or someone who struggles with what life has to offer , Nevertheless, my encouraging inner part which had told me that it is necessary to terminate all such thoughts from my nerve system won over the discouraging part of me… 100 people die from their smoking habit everyday… 89 people died from a train crash yesterday… 70% of the diagnosed people with cancer die… …………………. And the list can be kept going on… …………………. When I hear such estimation, dominated thoughts take control over my brain, and keep me wonder… What are the 100 peoples' names? How many beloved ones the 89 dead people left behind? What were the 70% dreams and desires before they were diagnosed with cancer? Were they good people? Were they bad people? What was their last thought? Did they maintain the light of hope shining,or they just lost it while they were struggling? Have they lost their lives when their souls surrendered and had their last breathe taken, or were they only walking bodies without souls, loosing their lives years before they actually die? What were their hobbies? What were their saints? Were they bullies? Were they angles? What Kind of human beings were they? How did they lead their lives? What was their daily activity like? Were they the head of the house, or the neck of the society? Life can be so unfair… No matter whom they were and how they acted and interacted with everything around them, No matter how good or bad their decisions they have made, they don’t deserve to be treated ONLY as: A Number A News headline A statistical result of a calculated equation A primary data They don't deserve to be treated simply as an unknown… As an anonymity… As an abandoned child… As an ignored pain… As an unwanted insect… As a disregarded conscious…because they simply aren't… They were a part of this universe…They were a part of the life's system, and their presence and their contribution in all the events they participated in changed the lives of the people whom were touched, and affected by the things they have done, and by their existence…They were known…They were somebody to someone…

Hi Fantasia,
Dear, you are not pessimistic you just looked at it from a different angle. a number on it's own means nothing, what gives the number importance is the subject.
It might be a sad post, but it is also REALITY!
cheer up! ;)
