Well, he chose to be a pilot, he chose to assume the risks that come with getting in the cockpit of that plane. Going down and crashing is one of those risks that he chose to assume when he became a pilot. Nobody else made that choice for him. We are all responsible for own lives and the choices we make. Nobody else is. That's not to say we shouldn't assume risks in life, but we are still responsible for own lives and our own choices.

True that the sun is life giving, but it's not the fault of the sun if one is over-exposed. The sun can be destructive when it is about pass away, as it will grow and engulf the Earth according to scientists. But who's fault is that, if we knew millions of years ahead of time, that the sun will pass away one day and take us with it, if we stay on Earth and never gave the space program the investment, time and energy that it should have? It is not the fault of the sun, because it is in the nature of things, that all things pass away and that nothing is forever, including the universe itself. However, I do think balance is necessary when living your life. I am not sure if there is balance in
everthing, this is something I am unsure about. Maybe you are right that their is balance in everything. I personally, don't know.
