STEVE IRWIN [ 1962-2006 ]
STEVE IRWIN
[1962-2006 ]
He was a great man, one full of enthusiasm and thrill. One who took many risks, risks that not many people will dared to undertake nor face. He lived his passion and earned my utmost respect. I loved his splendid documentaries which allowed me to gain much insights on wildlife, broadened and strengthened my love for nature and wildlife. I was able to experience and 'see' the world's wildlife through his experience, feel the adrenline as how he must have felt; proclaim being enlightened after watching his shows. I had even made plans to visit Aunt Tracy's this December, hoping to land on an opportunity to shake his hands at the Australian Zoo..
Sometimes people say that life is unpredictable. I guess that phrase, though cliche, holds very true in reality. In fact i have yet to accept nor absorb the news that my respected wildlife master's dead. Such news really came so abruptly , recalling last year or so's news on Leslie Chung's suicide which brought about controversies on his deathday, 1st April, April fool's day.
His death dawned upon me like i've lost a dear one, too.
Deepest heartfelt condolences to Mrs Terri Irwin and her two poor children.
May God Bless them.
Amidst efforts to move on, this fact lies blatantly.
We are no matter what, still human. Death is inevitable.
