Mourning

Being a mother changes my perspective on many things. For examples, I am more tolerant towards a crying toddler in public instead of finding them a nuisance. I am empathetic when I hear news of miscarriage.. I get very emotional when news of toddlers injuries or even death spreads around.

In recent light of both MH 370 and MH 17, my heart wrenched every time I read or hear the news report.  It could have happened to our beloved national carrier,  carrying people we know.. "so and so ' s friend was on that plane. ..", our nation could be mourning instead of our neighbours.

Life is so unexpected. Always treasure our loved ones.

  1. Yes, when I read especially about the infants on board both flights, I was so sad. Imagine their young, innocent lives gone like that. :(
