Famous deaths are usually a huge shebang whether we loved or hated them, and we simply cannot help it. I tend to wonder why we focus so much on them when deaths occur everyday numerous times. The death of a child who was starved or a prisoner of old age, and this happens all the time. Yet we bury it in our own graves and try to forget the millions of lives taken each day. We do not care about the old man that was considered ugly and weird. He had died all alone due to our selfish ways and now that an actor we know nothing about has died we all want to pay our respects and do them justice. How come we haven’t opened our eyes and really experienced the pain and suffering out there. It will hurt like hell but maybe by reaching out we will get just a little closer to heaven. Let’s take a risk by bringing out the good and help others. Pay attention to your surroundings and you never know what may come out of your encouragement or even a simple smile. Instead of being the ideal person we have lowered our standards to just making yourself happy or just getting the new best thing. Must we be so horrible to each other and ignore the obvious truths out there. Yes some things are not pleasant to face but we need to try. Ignorance is unforgettably wrong, and no longer will we be fooled. We should focus on what’s right and on others well being. Along with some suffering happiness will eventually be reached.

Your comment was posted, but it wasn’t long enough to count as a review. Reviews need about four complete sentences (at least 250 characters). Try writing another review that explains your thoughts in more detail — the author will appreciate it, and you’ll earn points for it.
Did you pluck this straight out of your journal? The whole piece makes me feel like you hate people, and the word 'we' means you're including yourself. You seem angry. The piece intrigues thought, but it feels like a blog.
Welcome to YWS! I'm pretty new myself. I hope you like it here as much as I have so far. Let me know if the review helps or if you want any help or advice.
See you around!

Aw you're new!! Well then, welcome to YWS! I shall be your friend now x)
Call me CF/Freak
"that an actor" makes no sense and confuzzled me (
This is a question and continued question so there should be a question mark instead of a period, but I'm sure you know that. xD
I don't know what person you are using; first person, second person, third person, third person omniscient? Example: "Instead of being the ideal person we have lowered our standards to just making yourself happy or just getting the new best thing."
Again, this is a question; question mark.
There should be a comma after "Suffering."
Anyway this piece is very good and it makes you sound intelligent. Really good job and keep writing
