LIFE IS SO UNCERTAIN..

Im so saddened of the early demise of my best friend Grace, 39 died of cardiac arrest, a single mother of 2. I stopped blogging at Lagosians for some personal reasons but because of her early death I am into blogging here again. We always meet in school, her 2 kids are studying and everyday she always tells me how happy she is to see me in school teaching, the last time I talked to her was last week, i can recall she told me being into teaching makes me young. I laughed. She was telling me that she got so frustrated she didnt finished college, she would have also been a teacher now. I told her being a housewife is the greatest duty of any womans task, more better than teaching. She just smiled. I was unaware that it was the last smile I could ever have from her. I am writing this in memory of her because this give me an impression that LIFE IS UNCERTAIN. We never do what lies tomorrow, so i am sharing this to let the people know that while we are still here enjoying the beauty of life we have to do our best.

Life on earth is just a short stop over, to prepare for the next life. Dont be foolish and proud. Admit your littleness, weaknesses, wretchedness and repent. Be gentle with others always. We never know what tomorrow brings so make use of every day that we are still alive. Find where the sun is, appreciate the rainbow, listen to the rain, enjoy a sprouting seed, a blooming flower. Whatever failures we have in life we must be aware that God will not give us something if He thinks we can not manage. It is in falling that we will feel the essence of rising up again.
