Topic of the day : DEATH

What a morbid topic to talk about, but I'll talk about it anyway. Steve Irwin died yesterday, along with a few hundred people all over the world. If one person died in every country there is in the world there would be 194 people dead today. Then again it is not possible that only one person died. Take United States for example. I doubt there would be one dead person per day. I think there would be at least 30. The mob hits, the rapes, the accidents, natural deaths... and the list goes on. Steve Irwin was just the popular person who died. Its not everyday that a popular person dies. So if you know someone died today, let just say he/she maybe talking to Steve Irwin now at heaven's gate.

Still on the gustly topic of death, I have to add. I had this dream about losing someone I love to heart failure. Haha* It was freaky. I always tell myself that what I dream about at night is normally a result of the conversations I have in the day or the thoughts I had in the day. However, yesterday, I came no where close to thinking about heart attacks or death. So I just its just one of my inner fears poping up and scaring the hell out of me so that I would not be able to sleep.
