Journey to Eternity..



Life is soo fragile..thats wut i can conclude from the precious experience i gain this week..my beloved uncle passed-away on Tuesday nite..leaving a wife with 3 children (d' eldest only 15 years old).. people used to say.."Life begin at 40's" - Considering that my uncle died at the age of 45.. i dun think the 'phrase' is true!! (Al-Fatihah to my uncle soul)..

Life must go on.. it was his fate to die young..but to the people who been left behind..the long and lonely journey just get started..Good luck..

To me..getting closely involved in the arrangement of my late uncle funeral..it really opened my eyes.. am i ready to face the death ?..Did the person who i love & loved me would suffer if i'm not around?..that really borders me.. a lot.. yet.. i believe ..i shld start preparing for my 'absent' and make the people around me well prepared too..

Dun worry myself.. I believe.. Insya-Allah i'll live a long life.. but, i do think that the preparation shld start now..since..as human, we dun have the previlage to know the exact date of our death.. The preparation for the journey after death..('amalan')..and the preparation for the people who i will leave behind..MUST START NOW!!

As starting point.. i would share one of the most important thing which we usually take for granted..Remembering the death..

Death could happen anytime, anywhere and to anyone.. In my late uncle case..he died in his daughter (12 years old) arms.. Just imagine..the physycological impact to the daughter..

So.. i would say..its the best to remember the death & make ourselves prepared.. to 'see' death or to 'feel' death.. I would want to share the next chapter of my blog.. for us to be well prepared to 'see' death.. Chiow..
