Passing Judgement!

I woke up yesterday to a shocking news which made headlines across all leading dailies in Bangalore.

A 30 year old software professional smothered his 28 year old wife. And then took his own life.

Her mistake: he suspected her of having an extra-marital affair. His mistake I suppose was that he loved her too much to fathom losing her. But was it worth it at the end. For after all what he left behind were two suffering and broken families.

And the whole world has been sitting smugly passing judgement. The poor girl's social networking site has been flooded with vile remarks and mud slinging.

Not to forget the media that glorifies every episode in the common man's life, invades privacy and leaves the most sacrosanct instances open to debate and public bashing.

In my opinion everybody should just let it be. After all who are we to pass judgement. And try to decipher what happens within the four walls of each household or the human mind.

Suffice for me to say it is wrong to analyse a situation that none knows about.

May the two souls find peace and may in death they be able to sort out their differences and find solace.
