    If you've learnt, teach, if you have, give.
    Don't walk behind me as I might not lead, don't walk in front of me as I might not follow. Walk beside me, as my friend.

    Confirm. I was at the station when they closed the stantion for some time, causing a HUGE human traffic jam... Then when re-opened, some women were heard of a lady falling on to the tracks and managing to climb away to the other side of teh track just in time when the train approached...

    My friend, who was in the train smelt something burning... maybe the brakes...

    Then the police were seen arriving at the station (taking the train? ) and walking to the back of the station...

    Poor lady... To think when love dies, something that drastic can happen... Whatever happened to the sweet nothings? Shucks... My depression start again...

    Anger. It's hard to control sometimes. Sad fact of emotions.

    Anyway, I'm glad the girl made it. And the crowd stopped the boyfriend from running away.

    I've always wondered, why the station operators don't educate people where to go to avoid the train. I think the first instinct is always to climb back onto the platform. But that is a waste of time if a train is approaching, unless very strong people on the platform can drag you up really fast.

    She did the right thing but going to the other side of the track. I think the other option is roll under the platform ledge, but I'm not sure how much space is under there and what's in there. I wonder also if there is enough space under the train between the wheels.

    Thomas, this helps me: Shit happens, and life isn't fair. What's done is done, it cannot be undone. It does not mean I don't care, or I didn't do anything wrong. It just is. Learn the lesson, do better next time.

    Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:
    A woman, without her man, is nothing.
    A woman: without her, man is nothing.

    Well, anger is something dangerous when you lose control... I am glad my Buddhist studies helped me... Thanks, Vinz... But many a times, there is no more next time... especially, if anger is allowed to act out fully...

    I always thought that the further side of the track is where the high voltage railing are placed. She was lucky not to made contact with any of the high voltage railing.

    Yes, it is, but I think it's covered on top with a slot below for the train to access with some kind of contact arm. So if you climb over it and don't stick your hand in the bottom, you should be safe.

    Yeah. But next time can also mean next time with someone else.
