A sad demise!

To start with i should have written of this 2 days back,my mistake.I took the incident frivolously,but it is a bigger issue.Not everyone has such a regretful ending,not every child for sure.Thanks to Divya for reminding me and asking me to write on it.

I am talking about the demise of Santhosh Kumar,the young boy who was trying to help the bike riders get back the parcel they had dropped,purposefully,he was being innocent,being modest running towards the dropped parcel,little did he know that they did it purposefully with no intention of getting it back,with the intent of just taking few more lives.

It was fate,yes true fate.Not everyone would have done this,but his traits made him do a good deed and that turned against him,times that make us think if there is someone named God,if there had been then Santhosh definitely deserved a better ending.At just 11 he had a lot more let in life,yeah lot more.His last words were,"Bhai saab, aapka packet gir gaya hai” (brother, your packet has fallen).It was his honesty and sincerity that ultimately issued him the death warrant.

Had he not ran near the dropped parcel to give it back to the bikers he wouldn't have died,the rest would have been history,in our nation where such detonations have become a regular sight,sight of blood is no more alarming or concerning.But for Santhosh,this is a very lamentable incident.His tender heart would have never expected this to happen to him.Did the pillion rider carrying the deadly parcel look at that innocent child once,i wonder if he ever did.

As i always say he is also among the luckier lot,a little less luckier though.
Dear Santhosh no more will you be experiencing such activities there,we do pray for you child.

You could consider Santhosh lucky , considering that he doesn't really have to face the up's and down's of this life . When i lost my brother , people kept telling me that God probably liked him more than everyone else . Thats why he's now in Gods care .

Why not consider Santhosh lucky ? Lucky that now he doesn't have to suffer the imperfections of this life and is now living in Gods care which is hopefully better than what we have going on over here on earth .

Yeah he is in fact lucky, he escapes these never ending tussles of life. But then, he was too young for such a sacrifice.
God does take back the lives of ones whom he likes without even considering the feelings of people who love them more. God is also selfish at times, no wonder he took your brothers life as well giving least importance to the love all of you showered on him. My commiserations dear friend.
