I was reading John Grishm's The Confession...
A very gripping novel as expected from him.There is this scenario when mother receives her wrongly prosecuted son's body.The writer gives full justice to mother's emotions by describing in complete details how she goes about cleaning and dressing up her son's body.
The author very aptly describes how at every part of her son's body she ponders and thinks about her son's life as it was(being in jail for nine years for a crime he did not commit) and what it could have been.
A very traumatizing description that could make you relate to the pain the mother is going through.
It made me realize how insensitive we have become as human being towards all this.We read about death due to terrorist attacks as a regular feature in our newspapers without even blinking an eye .We as society have accepted this sort of unprecedented death as a norm in certain parts of the world with no concern to the fact that those dying there are also special to somebody.
We all know death is only certain thing in life but who has given right to some to plan death for others.Not only that but to live in constant fear of death of your loved ones must be so painful .Think..
