people mourn because when a person dies that you are very close to it makes them sad.Thats regular human nature.I think you would mourn too if you had a death in your family.But if u dont well, thats not up to me its up to u. And to everyone here thats comparing deaths to deaths saying some are more significant than others well its not exactly a contest. You cant say that not knowing how people reacted to a death. Everyone reacts to death in their own way, simply because everyone has a different perspective on life. Thankfully i havent had to experience too many deaths in my life, at least less than many people have. A few months ago my grandmas brother died. I was particullary sad because i only met the guy once, cuz he lives in another country. He seemed like a really nice guy. Well heres my perspective on this.
