It has been more than a month since their passing and calling from God. Some people said that they had an untimely death, especially Uncle Jeffrey, but God has a special purpose and a definite plan for everyone of us.
It is quite difficult to deal with 2 different families whom are in grief of losing a loved one. I do not think what will happen to me if I were to go back to Sabah and face Uncle Jeffrey's family and then come back to KL to face Paul Mama's family.
I hope that they are safe in Heaven as I believe that God had welcomed them with open arms.
I have not had the courage to blog about this, but Uncle Jeffrey's really untimely death was on Daily Express, 10th April.
The reason it all came back was because we just had Paul Mama's memorial yesterday. It was still an emotional one for me, as along with other relatives, hubby and I was there at his bedside right to when he breath his last. That was the first time for both of us.
Ever since I reached the hospital at 11pm, I stayed at his bedside till 2.30am. I was overcome with grief double the times, because I did not manage to go to Uncle Jeffrey's funeral as our flight was already booked to go back to KL the next day. That was the hardest moment to have 2 uncles pass within a week of each other. I will never forget the experience.
A lot of people that I know fears death and the people that they will leave behind when they go. For contingency reasons some plan carefully until they are 80 years old in order to have a good life then. But the fact is that we can go anytime. Even as I sit here on my desk typing away, there might be a sudden reaction in my body of which can take my life in a single blink of an eye (of course I would not want that to happen).
But whatever it is, the sermon yesterday at church talked about what contributions have we done on Earth that will leave a mark or legacy to the people that matters most. Are we prepared to go when the time comes and how prepared are we? What is our guarantee that we will go to Heaven and not Hell? Why do we fret on petty things on Earth and accumulate so much of wealth, because when we die we cannot bring the car of our dreams, or remember who won that darn competition with us to wherever that we are supposed to go. And so why the grumbles, the complaints, the anger, the madness, the sorrow? Don't we know that we will be called by God to go when He sees fit?
I am always in constant fear since I am here and my parents are 21/2 hours away. I mean if I am cekap enough to get tickets instantenously online, there is always the trip to the airport, the wait at the boarding area then the 2 hours flight. How can one life waits so long for all to come back?
And that is why every single day I give thanks to God that my loved ones, my son, my hubby and I are still wandering God's greatest creation (next to Man), the Earth.
I know our time is short here, so why don't we be the best that we can.
Go for that million mark when you are 30, or for that round the world trip while you still have solid bones to walk on. Spend quality time with friends and loved ones. But remember to find that sole purpose in life (which makes it all worth it), earn that ticket to that eternal life that is promised by God and just remember to be grateful to God for that opportunity to still be here on Earth.
RIP Paul Mama and Uncle Jeffrey.
