Re: Risks and our place here..

From the moment we are born, we run risks. Most are manageable as they are rare, others are almost certain to signal death (like driving the wrong way in a highway).
But the problem is that when that risk hits you, you don't accept it and attribute the event to something else just to reassure yourself.
There are 700 people who chose to go seeing a musical in a theatre in Moscow. Why that night? Why did it have to be that night?
Friends of mine were expecting to fly today to Moscow to see Frank De Winne go to space. I had considered joining them but because of the costs didn't. I just heard that because of the events in Moscow, the flight and the whole trip was cancelled. Have they lost lots of money because of it? Certainly some amount...
We are nothing, we are just passing by on this planet, we are its tenants and the real owners are our children.
