“Life is likened to the morning dew that disappears with the rising sun. Nevertheless, the length of days is not what makes age honourable, nor the number of years a true measure of successful life. We all have different journeys, different paths along the way. We are all meant to learn and contribute to the world, but never meant to stay forever.” John Donne quipped.
Death has been described as a solemn event and common experience of man. All earthly affections and pleasures come to abrupt end when death occurs; it comes unexpectedly and winds up earthly plans and expectations.
Throughout the world, all known philosophers, both of ancient and contemporary times, had tried to give meaning to death, with each seeing it from his own circumstances and perspectives.
From the postulations of a German philosopher, Karl Marx, life is just a direct opposite to death. According to this great politico-socio-economic philosopher, the world is polarised into those who are living and those who are already dead; those who have means to life to succeed, and those who have not, etc.

Haiti's prime minister praises El Salvador's president Nayib Bukele for unleashing fury on Haitian gangs.

Of all the generations between 1960 and now, only Gen Z goes beyond the normal 10-11 year range.
Notice how they've done the same for Gen Beta (14-15years).
Also, in 2039, the oldest Gen Zs will be 42 years and the youngest will be 27years. So all the shakara and wahala go come be inside Gen Alpha hand and the Upcoming Gen Beta (that'll majorly be under-18 teenagers then).
