Hmmmmm... This topic couldn't have come at a better time. Hello guys, I sincerely hope we're all doing good? I can't believe how much I missed this community while I was away for a whole week. I lost my uncle on the 26th of April (last month), it was really not a good feeling.
That brings me down to the reason I said this topic couldn't have come at a more appropriate time!
One thing I'm grateful for in all honesty and entirety is life itself. It's how this gift of life is really getting the barest appreciation. Life is just such a beautiful thing that everyone needs and is obligated to enjoy.
It's something I think we should dive into, taking every trials, victories, pains, joy, blessings... As they come. Cause this life, could be snatched away from you at any given time, without your consent. So why not live it before you leave it?? Why not enjoy what is worth enjoying, celebrate even your littlest wins and be happy. Why not take every heartbreak as a reminder that there's room to do and be better? Why not utilize this gift of life? Use the opportunity of every new day you are blessed with and live it to the fullest cause you never know which could be your last. Death is inevitable but we never anticipate it's coming. Truth is if we know anytime it's coming we'll definitely look for ways to avoid it. In this almost three decades of my life, I have lost a whole lot of people dear to me, extremely close to my heart, that each time I pull through and get to live with the fact that they're no more and I could only live with the memories of them that I have, I get surprised at how strong I was to do that and the truth is, it's not even about being strong or having some sort of strength.
It's just what life is, it's just how life is being designed to be. One day they're here the next they're not. It begins to seem like they were never there. Everytime I loose someone I can't help but wonder or imagine how well that person enjoyed the life he lived. If he really lived it to it's fullest or he lived it with so much worries and pains. Drowning in the problem that came with every new day or was he happy?
Sometimes, a lot of times even I have been called unserious, carefree, sometimes even wild. Simply because I always choose to live my life at its best without worry. The breath of fresh air we take without life support, our lungs doing it's work perfectly, our sight being perfectly normal, having to deal with minor health challenges like headaches and co. Having use to my legs perfectly, having the ability to stretch at my own freewill, having the energy to run in the rain and enjoy the drops of rain on my skin, splashing all over, running not minding people looking at me or whatever they might say, just enjoying this beauty called rain that life has decided to bless us with, something only the living can enjoy. Or do I talk about the beauty of just living. I'm really grateful for this gift of LIFE I must say, cause it's the best gift I could ever ask for and it is the opportunity I have at living my best and fulfilling purpose each passing day. And I am trying my best everyday to really go through life and not let life go through me before it is taken away from me. I'm grateful also for what life has given to me like family and friends, they keep me going.
