Shelved under Bits and Pieces, My Thoughts

I am wide awake at 3am in the morning because hubby went with college friends to Nueva Vizcaya (we have been there before for a holiday trip and it is like 6-7 hours away, in one trip) to visit their former classmate. This former classmate named Hazel died the other night and her demise was even in the news and tabloids. She was the call center agent who died because she slept in the house of her friend which unfortunately was broken into by a stranger with  intent on robbing the house.

What is it with people who do these things? To rob another person or a house is bad enough but to actually take another person’s life? There have been disturbing news lately about these happening in different places in our country. To think we call ourselves happy people, I can’t being to understand why these things occur.

Sign of the times? What times? Difficult times. Hard times. People are becoming poorer, people are hungrier, people are desperate. When people feel these, there is no stopping what they intend to do, no matter how grave, no matter how horrible. And that in itself is not good.

uy this is quite tragic. i also can’t understand why there are people who’d kill other people, especially those innocent ones. nakakalungkot sobra.

  • So true, Ann. Everyday we hear about these things in the news, as if these are not news anymore, and these are just like ordinary events. So sad talaga.
