Gone......

Not sure how to write this.......

Fri morn, woke up late.....got a msg from my best bud.
"One of our ex-school mate from sec sch lost in the sea since tuesday. Read the newspaper."
Bought a newspaper on the way to school.
It is true then.

It is funny how you read the news everyday but never get affected until it happens to someone you knew. All of a sudden, memories came back fast. Yes we were not close. But its the fact that we knew each other's existence that makes the affects. I can't imagine how the family is feeling. The emotions are too raw.

In this journey through life, so many people we get to know. One way or another. May be close, may be not. Maybe, they are just passing through our lives. How many more will we lose. How many more will we be affected. Will I be remember when I'm gone? Will I affect other people's lives the way they affected mine?
