nearly 100,000 people i will never get to know
numbers get weird for me after a while, maybe it’s an inability to keep large numbers in my mind in some kind of reasonable manner. maybe it’s just the sheer size and volume that blows my mind, trying to extrapolate the impact that numbers and maths in general has had on the world — for good and bad, honest and evil.
on average I’d say that I take a look at the stat charts for the current covid-19 / coronavirus pandemic numbers probably a couple of times a day, it was a lot more but I realised that watching a chart that’s gonna be going up in a curve for a while longer is not productive or any less easier on the heart and the soul.
For me, those numbers while a blur are all people that are in either some kind of sickness, pain, suffering or often times it seems with this virus a lot worse, as of today, we are well on the way to 100,000 people dead.
People that I’ll never know about, people I’ll never get to meet, to know their backstory, what they lived for, what they wanted to achieve with their time on earth, people who were fathers to children and grandparents to their parents — all unique, all with something to give potentially to society.
Who knows maybe one of those 100,000 was your soul mate, maybe they had the next genius invention or maybe had an idea for some power saving device, next generation battery or some fundamental core construct that would push the standard model in some way.
We should pray to our deity of choice or at least reflect deeply on all of these people if your atheist. souls we never got to bless with communion of human spirit together, but we should celebrate them like we did.
