DEATH…
After I could conceive all the tears brought to me by the pains of leaving my children I smiled…
Me: My son, go and call all your siblings for me
He quickly ran out to reach out to all His brothers cause I had three sons with my Wife Alice before death took her away, first being John, Second was Carlos and third which was my 7 years old Kid, Samuel
John: Dad, what’s wrong with you, we were outside trying to catch views when Samuel came to inform us that you were for some minutes silent with your eyes closed, what’s wrong dad?
Me: My son listen, I called you all to give you some life lessons cause I could see my end coming… Sit down…
My children…listen… life is precious, live life to the fullest…here are some lessons I would love to give you my children
1. Honor and respect God at all time, be sure to rely on him for strength
2. Don’t be among the fools that keep on waiting for God to perform a miracle, make your miracles to happen, the power is in you
3. Never allow the thought of others to influence your being, shot out all their opinions but when opinions are needed, make sure you filter some out
4. Write down your goals and dreams and pursue them with everything you’ve got
5. Live life today, tomorrow isn’t promised
6. Don’t waste time talking with people who laughs at your vision but don’t do away with them either cause they’ll be needed at your celebration party.
7. Sometimes it’s better to walk alone, it makes you stronger and more efficient
8. Don’t make drinking a habit cause through it friends betray each other
9. Always invest into your future cause the future is not for one person but for all
10. Learn to forgive but don’t forget
11. You can speak out your mind to God, you can yell at him, its Alright, He can handle it
12. Death, my children is inevitable, it’ll definitely come someday
13. Death doesn’t knock when coming, it enters at will, even your age can’t stand against it, for it takes both the old and young but your will power and determination sometimes limits its operations
14. Be determined therefore to live and make a change in life
15. Do not be afraid to ask when you’re in need, but do not make it a habit to always ask for support, it sometimes hurt your self-respect
I could see tears flowing down my children’s eyes but couldn’t reach out to them because I was getting weaker and whenever I close my eyes, I couldn’t see the shadow of death…
Me: children, always stand by each other at all time, this is one secret to growth, Unity…and don’t exclude love from it
Death: Hey, time up!!
I could feel its pang on my head, I could feel it crippling me down and sucking out all of my strength, my eyes failed to open, I could only hear silent voices of my kids, after sometime I knew I was no more…
Death….
