Last Wednesday, my uncle passed away,
He was a hard worker, and had still been working the day before.
This uncle was considered to be my second father, as he always supported us and his children, my cousins , are the same ages as me and my brothers, we went to the same schools, did the same sports, grew up together.
His death was really unexpected, as just two day prior, we sure him at a family function and were we laughing at the dry jokes that he made.
Even though death maybe a part of life, we are never really prepared for it, to happen to others, even though we sometimes are for if it had to happen to ourselves.
My family has been reeling from the shock that it has been hard to get anything done, without tears , or memories,.
I am grateful that I had been blessed with an amazing man like my uncle.
Someone that mattered to much, and always put his family first,
even though the situation is really sad, I am happy that he will be remembered every festive period, and that we have been so much more available for the family because it is this time.
God may have his reasons, and sometimes we do not understand, but we do accept our realities, even though we do not believe it.
I would like to wish all a Merry Christmas, May you cherish your loved ones, my you do what is right and what truly makes you happy. we do not know if we will get to see another year with the same faces around us.
Remember that you are blessed, and never forget that you are loved.
