you know..


but sometimes you don't.

just because tragedies could have been prevented, or always have a root cause, doesn't mean there is always someone to blame.

i think a lot of people have forgotten the definition of 'accident'.

sure, the things that have been somebody's responsibility need to be dealt with correctly, but it has to be realised that there isn't always a clear explanation.

Nightmares by the Sea


I've been listening to Jeff Buckley for a while now, I love his song 'We All Fall In Love Sometimes'. He has a really odd but really really nice voice.


Anyway, I was reading up on him and discovered that he died at the premature age of 30.

His death was so tragic; he was swimming with a Roadie friend one night, and while his roadie friend was on the shore he turned around to put a guitar aside, and turned back to see that Jeff was gone. A couple of days later they pulled his body out of the river and declared it an 'accidental drowning'.

Such an awful fate.

Just another one of those things that makes you stop and think about how incredibly lucky you are.
