The news of the drowning of a fellow CETian has left me shaken . More so because of my little trip to the high current waters of aruvikkara the same day and my insane mountain climbing there . But tragedy , it seems , struck somewhere close , but thankfully not that close . News of the ill-fated death has left everyone shaky . Aishu could'nt figure out what she felt , though it seemed like fear to me . My mother was morally shocked . "How difficult it would have been to raise a son so far , to see him lost , after reaching CET , and due to lack of water ???" . How cruelly ironic ? Why should he have drowned because of the lack of water ? That too in a Government run hostel . How would have the mates of the boy taken it . Helplessly watching bubbles come up , while all they can do is stand around helpless . How would it have affected them to see one among their brothers die ? God knows . God help us all . Peace . Time to correct all our mistakes . Do it right people . Life is too short to make silly mistakes .
