Difficult

Difficult is to see hundreds of people get injured in an explosion on a clear day. You can never say such a thing is easy. You don’t know these people, as much as they don’t know us. But then again, if we think about it, our life is nothing but a life of one random human organism made possible by millions other random people? Do we know who has spent their waking hours assembling the parts of our beloved laptop, bikes, ballpoint pens, etc? It made every news report about bombings that kill hundreds of people a difficult news. I’m talking here about drone killings in Pakistan and Gaza as much as about the 3 deaths and hundreds casualties in the ‘Boston marathon bombing.’
