In aghast moments , why are there less tears? When have the town criers stopped shouting? Where are the weepers? The agony has worsened yet we lack empathy. We have mortgaged it with callousness. In the news and magazine headlines, we witness these horrible events, when sorrows becomes the main tune, yet we remain silent. Tears of joy is scarce, death becomes her. Who cries for those who can't cry anymore? In these perilous times, there is more detachment beyond the funeral parlors, beyond the latest atrocities in the news, beyond our hearts. When sorrow no longer becomes newsworthy, who will still weep for the misfortunes?
