In the fall of 2000 the Russian submarine K-141 Kursk was trapped under the sea. The Captain of the ship Dimitri Kolesnikov wrote this dying message to his wife to let her know what he felt in the final moments of his life.
Kolesnikov is clearly the kind of person who writes down his emotions. Kolesnikov and I have this in common. Although there are things that differ between the two of us, for example I am not Russian. Even though we are seperated by geography and language we are still that of the same species and we are the kind of person who write down our feelings to express ourselves. This can come from a variety of reasoning. We feel like we have no other way to express our emotions, we feel like this is the only way to be heard, we feel the need to be remembered. The need for people to know what we went through, through good times and bad.
