Emotionally incorrect

Accidents, terror attacks, natural calamities, man-made calamities - more often than not these tragedies result in loss of human lives. There are people who live to see another day and then there are some who are not so lucky. Those who survive thank God for his kindness and then there are some who point towards their special tryst with God which resulted in their providential escape. It is understandable that these are the most natural of reactions, but somehow, one's heart reaches out to those who loose out in these battles, and their near and dear ones. While carrying guilt for being survivors in tragedies would be extreme, a certain amount of restrain in feeling alive would make it emotionally correct especially with so much of media footage streaming into every drawing room.
