Dying alone..ooh cheery
If I've learned any phrases in life it's this:
"There are three types of lie in this world. Lies, damn dirty lies, and statistics."
That being said, statistics can be comforting in the right light. I've had a bit of a hunt around and I've found out that between 96 and 107 people die per minute. How's that comforting?
Well, I've often figured that we all die alone. That is, unless we're in a bus full of nuns going over a cliff or something. But, this way, none of us really die alone. There's someone going through the same sort of problems as you right at the same time....although according to one statistic that's 1.78 people dying per second, so really you're sharing it with .78 of a person. But, the theories still there.
I don't know why I'm thinking about this, but that's me. I have no idea why I think anything, it just happens. If you can figure out where my mind is most of the time, then send a self address envelope to....well just hand it to me, it'll be quicker.
