228+ stories, hopes, dreams... lost in Atlantic

I feel deeply sad about the passengers, crew and pilots of AF447 which went missing after it 'encountered severe turbulence' and 'reported technical failures'. 228 people- all of whom might have called their loved ones in Paris or saw them off at the Rio Airport before boarding the plane- would now remain just as a memory in their hearts. 228 stories, hopes and dreams are drown into the deep waters of the Atlantic.

My condolences to the families and friends of the people on board the AF447. My God give them the strength to withstand the great loss.

Bhagwad Gita says, "the soul is never born, nor it ever dies... even though the body is slain, the soul is not.(2/20)" and "as a man shedding worn-out garments, takes other new ones, likewise the embodied soul, casting off worn-out bodies, enters into others that are new. (2/22)"

I am sure all those souls who ceased their association with their bodies and their loved ones, shall continue their journey to eternity at some other place, in some other form - and shall always remain as sweet memories in the hearts of their families and friends.

God bless...
