Three deaths in three weeks.
Death. The word itself is so creepy. We here about the word, at different places all the time. And every time we encounter this word, it makes us sad, not knowing why. The person may be someone whom you don't know at all. Its strange how a person whom you saw, you talked, do not exist anymore in any form.
The worst still, is when you come to know the person ended his own life. Three suicides in 3 weeks in 3 IIT's. Statistically number doesn't look too dangerous.
There is 1 suicide attempt in every IIT every 2 years, thats approx out of 5000 samples(students) in age group of 19-25 attempt suicide once in 2 years. The number is pretty ok when compared with any sample space from real world.
But! Suicide! How someone can gets so much guts to end his/her own life. I am scared when Doctor injects syringe, wonder how a person can get guts to bear the unbearable. Everyone here at IIT was shaken by the incident. So was I. Over a period of time things loosen. But during those moments of tension we realize, what is life. We realize something which cannot be told or understood. At that moment life appears so tempting and beautiful that death appears to the stupid thing to even think or worry about.
Few day came across these quotes of Isaac Asimov:
Life is Pleasent. Death is Peaceful. Its a transition thats troublesome.
Have Good Day
