Kampar have become a popular verb in the recent media news. However, it is rather unpleasant to find people dying from accidents.
And yes, life is short. We couldn't predict what comes next. So do accidents, it happens. If you are lucky, you might get over it without much loss. What's worst, bet your life.
Above all, we couldn't do much about accidents. Just don't take things for granted and appreciate people around you before they are gone, forever. What's left now is yourself grieving with regrets.
If you were to read these news, i'm pretty sure, most of them never thought of these misfortune events since they were enjoying themselves at that time.
Kids at camp, Adults probably traveling since their relatives and children were with them, Teen at waterfall. That doesn't sound dangerous at all ain't it.
Yes, accidents are unpredictable, unexpected, sudden i say.
Well, the kids were simply innocent, not knowing that new bridges can be harmful, dangerous, or even causes death! Mark that, they were only 11 - 12 years old!!
Perhaps, they do not even spell death. What's the use of compensation after lives have been spared. And it's too late to even apologise.
Ain't bridges designed to ease, to protect, to lessen the amount of accidents . . .
