Hard Work All Lost

The biggest shame of Virginia Tech is the waste of life. Hard work for nothing. Lives lost before the really start. Dreams shot down. Future families never to be. Sons and daughters never to be had. I hate when I lose a couple of hours worth of work. I can go hysterical.
But twenty years, that's the shame. Roughly 600 years of life was taken. Not to mention the lives they could have saved. The world will keep turning, and few will remember. I didn't know any of them, they were just numbers in a headline.
But the numbers that I saw, makes me want to dwell on living the years I have left then giving glory to the murderer and perhaps spawning more of them and creating future travesties. I don't want to be a number on a headline.
