Still on a serious note

Living here, I am much more aware of the war in Afghanistarn (as they call it )
So far there have been 240 boys killed in the war .
One morning on the radio, the presenter simply read out all the names and ages. It went on and on and on and reduced me to tears. The relentless list of names.
Considering there are at least 32 000 people murdered in SA per year, can you just imagine if someone was to read the names out?
The war in Afghanistan started in 2001.
Every life is important here. A good lesson to learn I think.
