... many years ago (he was 25) - for weeks after, I would cry at stories in the paper involving someone's death. I KNEW what their loved ones were going through, their feeling of senseless sudden loss - I felt it too. And I feel it now. Very sad.

I know people are interested and empathetic, but do we really need a minute-by-minute chronicle of the family and their pain and sorrow? I find it to be on the voyeuristic and intrusive side. Look how intimate and personal that picture is. If that were my family, I wouldn't want to share it with the world.
