Statistics

Statistics are the enemy.

Humans are more than figures.

Tragedies are incomparable.

Life is more precious than any number assigned to it.

But why are we consumed by data?

Have we rewired our thoughts to draw comparisons?

I challenge you to observe objectively.

It is then you will truly feel.
