Watch every step

2009 - It has been a year with significant deaths. Someway or another, it is either someone you know by name, someone you know by heart or someone related in everyway.
Talented and young souls who have gone too soon.

Today, 18 Sept 2009 is indeed a sad day for most of us at work as well as the students. Even those indirectly involved and who doesn't know the boy personally.
Two nights ago, a 4th year student in Engineering was just crossing the road outside the campus for dinner with his friends and little did his friends know, that was his last day on earth. He was doing his last year and last semester

My heart goes out to his family and everyone who knew him as a friend. I can imagine how devastated they are at this moment as the doctors has just informed of his passing away about 10 mins ago.

As of yesterday, the doctors already knew his fate but had put him on a life support machine anyway to see if there's a chance having known that the quite obvious would be hoping for a miracle to happen.

Life is sometimes not fair but knowing that God loves this beings more, maybe that makes better sense for you and me.

The Oak

Live thy Life, Young and old, Like yon oak, Bright in spring, Living gold;
Summer-rich Then; and then Autumn-changed Soberer-hued Gold again.
All his leaves Fall’n at length, Look, he stands, Trunk and bough Naked strength.
–Alfred Lord Tennyson
