Death

There comes a time in life when we have to face the subject of death. As much as death is end of life for the person involved, it does result in start of vaccuum for all the people related to the deceased.

One of my neighbors nine month old son passed away to heavenly abode yesterday during the early hours. The family had been fighting the baby's illness for several months. The pain involved for the parents in such a situation is totally unexplainable.

The family did not leave any stone unturned to find a cure for the illness. They hopped from one hospital to another, with hope upon hope to fight the tumor that refused to budge from the little gems delicate brain. However their relentless pursuit to keep him with us mortal souls wanned day by day, since almighty god had laid out a different journey for the little soul, perhaps more glowing and celestial than ours.

Today I offer my deepest thoughts and prayers to the family in pain, as they continue to embrace the heart wrenching reality that they will have to undergo for years to come.
