It’s never easy losing a loved one. It’s all the more painful for those who were left behind suddenly. No warning signs to prepare them for the pain they will endure. But thinking it through they have shown signs of saying goodbye as in the case with my father. He left advice and tried to show his love whenever he got the chance.
Life is fleeting. We’ll never know when we are going to depart. Some may have served their purpose in this life and left us early. Maybe they were suddenly called to a higher purpose. God may be running out of good soldiers to save mankind and He wants them by His side.
Yesterday, I went to the wake of one of my children’s teachers. He was too young to leave this life. His kindness left an indelible mark on every student’s life. What’s heartbreaking is he left a young wife and a small kid. You can feel his wife’s anguish whenever she passed the coffin. She was asking his husband why they left them suddenly. It was a heartwrenching sight.
Only God knows the answer to the mysteries of life. The only thing we can do is to live our life to the fullest. Do good in our borrowed life. Make the most of the time we have with our loved ones. To live a life with no regrets at the end.
I’m so sorry!

This is beautiful, Winnie. Death is part of life, in fact the one and only absolute in life. Grief must come to all of us at some point or other. I will be praying for this young man’s wife and family. May they know peace “beyond understanding”.

We know that death is inevitable; and yet we still feel the pain of losing a love one. Why? So many reasons to tell..but one thing is sure though …no matter how long and no matter what happens they will always be remembered in the deepest recesses of our hearts..

So true. Two of my friends beat me to heaven last year. About a year apart from each other. Both so young and full of life. “God only knows the mysteries of life” and I know He gained two passionate soldiers to “save mankind”. Thanks for sharing.
All we have left is to keep on keeping on. ❤

So sorry for this loss Winnie. It is hard to understand why some people are taken away from us, especially when we see it as early. Then, again, it is not for us to understand. God decided it was his time and wo are we to question his eternal wisdom.
Beautiful post so full of wisdom.
