Condolences to the families and friends of the 5 dragon boaters

I don't know any of them, but over the past few days, reading the news and online entries about them, I feel quite sad and disturbed that 5 young lives are gone so abruptly... there is a sense of loss that creeps up now and then and a nagging thought of why their lives have been taken away so soon. I can imagine how much worse those that know them

that poem was read at Princess Diana's funeral. i loved it very much and it gave me lots of hope whenever i experienced the loss of a loved one. the truth is that we all need to find hope and inspiration from the work these five wonderful guy did. that their legacy may live on in our hearts.
