Jan 17 - Line for the day

'He's going to die right here in the street ...'
- Page 171, The City of Joy, Dominique Lapierre

Wow..what a depressing line to pick up. Dying on the street sounds like such a lonely way to go. Public, but lonely. Or maybe thats just my fear of dying alone. Death comes to all...but to die alone freezes me up inside. Its probably selfish of me. Undoubtedly, death is probably harder on the living...or so I believe. And yet, dying alone must surely be the most tragic way to go.

Nothing else comes to mind. Just silence.
