R.I.P MH370

Nearly 3 wks after MH370 disappeared from the radar, how many of us are still following the news closely?

Except for the families, I guessed most of us would have moved on with our daily lives.  Even I am guilty of that, though I am still following the news daily but sometimes I will be too caught up in my things to read the updates.

Watching the news last night, it was finally said that MH 370 had thought to end at South Indian Ocean dashing all hopes of the family members waiting anxiously for the returns of their love ones.

Though no bodies were found as yet and details of what is found are stretchy, but I'm sure the authorities will have certain confirmed information to support their statement. Else it would be stabbing the heart of the families twice at the same place.

It was a deadly blow to the family members who are holding on hope that their love ones survived but are just waiting to be rescued. I cannot imagine the pain that went through them when the news broke.

What I also cannot imagine are the last moments of the people on board MH370, whether they are conscious or not. No one will know how they would die but this is certainly 1 of the most painful way,  physically and emotionally. They don't even have time to bid goodbye to their love ones.

I knew the pain of saying goodbye. It's so painful that you will be numb for the next few days and it still stings whenever you recall the parting. Not having a proper parting makes the pain multiplied by dunno how many thousand times since in your heart, you might not registered the fact that this is it, the end.

As we await more updates from the news, I sincerely pray that all the lives lost on board are on their way to a better place and they did not have to suffer much during their last moments. This is the only thing we as side watchers can pray for. Hopefully the recovery of the plane will be smooth and will shed more light on this mystery and bring a closure to their family members.

My thoughts and prayers are with families and may the victims find peace. R.I.P MH370.
