When powerful people are just humans

The Prime Minister's wife just passed away this morning and for this, I offer my condolences. I know how hard it is to lose a loved one; No matter how much you prepare for it, it'll always hit you hard, especially if the person meant a lot to you in life.

The newspapers are reporting that the PM would not let this affect his performance in his responsibilities to the country but he is still human after all. We wouldn't blame him even if he's been neglecting his responsibilities; he lost his mother in 2004 and now he's lost his wife. We can't deny that we'd break down under such circumstances.

This is when even the most powerful of men are human.
