Curious neighbor syndrome!

Today the old geographic limits and boundaries have dissolved into nothingness - thanks to the internet that has reduced the whole world to a village. So people find nothing wrong in showing prurient interest in their neighbor Shashi's life. Since last night, we have yet again been subjected to the media circus, and all of us have been glued to the telly, and/or the computer - following the developing story! 

Taking one's life is not an easy decision and the poor woman must have gone through hell before she decided to end her life. Let us not sit in the comfort of our living room and judge her! Also dammit, don't put her life on show for the world to gape at, and gossip about. 

And also - about her family - these are people who have lost their loved one under very tragic circumstances - let them grieve in peace! Back off everyone, please!
