Too many things happening at the same time. Good and bad. Today my immediate boss's wife passed away after a hard battle with the big C. Apparently she happened to discover it during one of those free check up promotional gig that most health care companies do in their attempt to sell their products. She was in the fourth stage of it. She felt no pain, no changes in her body functions. Her chemotherapy sessions were unbearable. Yesterday the doctor put her on sleep sedatives to help her ease her pain. She passed away peacefully this morning. I went to pay my last respect to her this afternoon at her mum"s house. May God forgive her wrongs and may she be at peace now. Al fatihah.

The earlier bad news is still affecting me. That happened on Friday afternoon when I received news about the death of my ex colleague's only child . That was the most devastating news ever cos he was her life.To be taken away from from her at such a young life is so hard to swallow. He was only 28, just finished his houseman ship and now serving as a medical officer at one of the state's district hospital. I worry for her. How she is going to cope with this loss. Many a times we do share lots of good times discussing about our children among other things. She was looking forward to her son getting hitched and then him giving her grandchildren.

Oh well, who are we to determine the future. If we can orchestrate our lives and our deaths then we will be mentally prepared for things to happened as planned. But the Almighty has it all worked out for us all. And the Almighty never revealed anything . What we can do is pray to Him for his guidance and that we will always be in the right path. and any time we go astray we pray and asked for his forgiveness. We repent.We hope never to repeat the same mistakes again.

Life indeed is precious. And its a cycle. No one is immortal. But everyone hopes that when the time comes to leave this world, we have done enough good to deserve that reward on the Judgement Day. I hope and I pray that I will be given time to do more good, to ask for forgiveness for myself, my husband, my children and son in law, my father and mother, my brothers and sisters, my nieces and nephews , my precious grandson, my other relatives , my friends and all ..
