If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why?
Banning this won’t make it go away, that’s a fact, but it is word that freaks me out. So very disturbing.
‘ Fatalities’ …Hearing this word cuts through my very being. My soul frozen right there and then. A brief flash of complete darkness, before all my senses are awakened.
Conjoured up are images of chaos, despair, sadness, absolute disbelief. The word evokes a horror and terror the loved ones will experience in the seconds, days, months or even years ahead.They will be disturbed, upset, shocked.
The emergency services involved in picking up the pieces will absorb so much. Left to deal with their feelings, the emotions, in their own time.
For me being an Empath is both a blessing and a curse and my heart goes out to those affected and grateful to those who have to work within the realms of the world called fatalities every single day…
