thats way dark,
it hurts me a lot to see/hear about elderly people especially getting hurt.
Its going to be stuck in my head for while, although I know thousands of people die cruel deaths every day.
Tynans point about being more connected to the nuts & bolts of surviving really hit a nail on the head.
If you have ever been closeley entwined in the basic nuts & bolts of surviving, and depended on smaller but less superficial social groups. The "area" termed "spirituality" or "superstition" by most in places like the UK. Become a lucid viceral dimension of everyday reality. Its hard to describe, but you know it when your there.
