It should though, right? I'm always complaining to myself that I don't think enough. Literally, don't process those things that are going on around me and the direct and greater meaning of those things -- really thinking -- but man, death makes me think. There is an immediate punch in the gut, typically due to shock, and then the awe and amazement. The ramifications of an individuals death are varied, although no matter who or where you are, it's painful for those you left behind near or far.
I absolutely have a 'moment of silence' for people whom I have known, encountered, admired or simply heard about that have passed on. Process the reality into context. Apply it to my life and see where I may be taking things for granted, where I can make changes, those things I am appreciating and doing right. One split second. One decision. One negative remark. One moment can change the course of your or some other life instantly. I am fascinated by that split second and the impact that it has.
Yes, death occurs everyday throughout the world. It is a part of life. The end to the cycle. Respect it.
