Seven people in the US skies died today, as the space shuttle Columbia exploded on its way to landing in Florida.
At least forty people in Zimbabwe died today, as a freak accident sent a passenger train on a collision course with a freight train full of flammable liquid.
Me? How can I feel anything but sorrow for all those people who died? And how can I not use these people's memories to strengthen the will to live?
With every innocent death I learn of, I grow a little stronger. Not in a physical sense, but the sense of resolution. As should we all, I believe.
