Having crossed 41 years old, I am very sure my half life is over.
I have come across thousands of people in this timeframe (family, extended families, school/college friends, school/college seniors/juniors, neighbours, hostel mates, colleagues, customers, vendors, staff, acquittances, landlords, random strangers, business people networking, etc.)
2 years ago, 2 classmates died (one of whom was close) in the same year and in the last year another close friend classmate passed away. This got me thinking of the pattern and looking at the situation, I think this pattern is only going to be increase as most of my contacts are in the second half of their lives. I am going to regularly encounter deaths of known people irrespective of whatever happy or not situation I am in and I am going to have to accept it.
It looks like I have reached the mountain peak of people I would get to know in my life and now onwards, it is about descending the mountain of people I know.
