Just my rambles for yesterday

Yesterday was another beautiful day on the earth's surface. Not so special but the count makes it look so special which was counted to be the 22.02.2022. and just another amazing day of the year. It is called the ambigram as it occurs rarely in the calendar and it is the last we have to experience so far. There is no month with the count of 33day so even if the calendar should count the 3rd month of 3033. The last one was dated to have occurred on 11.01.1011. It's a pleasure to be among those who witnessed yesterday.

Good day to another sad news.

On Monday while I was having a chat with a friend of mine, she updated her status to be in a bad mood and she was heartbroken about it. I asked her about the sudden change in her mood then she broke the news to me that her uncle just kicked the bucket. I sent her my condolences and prayers. It was so sad to hear. But everyone in life would just have to visit the grave someday no matter how slow we trek or how fast we run.

Death is inevitable. While some of my friends were also celebrating their birthday yesterday and I was happy wishing them well as they count to another additional year on the earth's surface. Then I decided to take some rest and sleep for a few minutes before it was time to get up and prepare for my workplace.

I was deep asleep before I got the call from my boss at work who is also a member of the army. He called me to gather some people around me so we can go dig the grave for one of the dead soldiers who was known to be the guard commander to the state governor.

He was announced dead yesterday morning so we got to dig his grave by noon and he got buried in the evening time. He left his wife, children, families, friends, co-workers, and his boss behind and dropped at his bustop when his time was over.

He left a message to all of us while he found his way to the outer world.

The number 1 message was that Death is not new to humankind anymore. We are bound to be present at his grave today, so would people be there at our grave too. We are all breathing in and out but someday it will all end like he did yesterday.

We all have our different times in life so don't compare yourself to others, even your dearest wife or husband would not follow you into the grave. They might cry and cry but one day they would stop crying and move on. Your child would play and smile but once in a while, they might remember you and whatever you do. You are left all alone with your deeds.

Life is vanity, no matter how rich you are, your money, or your cars, your houses, your power, your title, and every otherworldly thing you have acquired so far, you would leave them behind, people would inherit them and probably fight over it while you are gone.

Prepare for the unknown day. It might be tomorrow or years to come, but you just have to experience it someday. Assuming our death day is visible to us we would have prepared a lot by doing good deeds and making sure we remain humble till the final day. But the sudden occurrence makes it remain a mystery to us. Someone who might be sound and healthy in the morning might be no more in the evening, while someone close to leaving the earth's surface would survive and keep living. Which means their time is not up yet.

That's life for us and nothing more.

The past few days have been so busy for me. As I continue to get some additional workload to attend to. I know this month of February seems somehow even on readcash and noisecash but we still keep pushing and hoping for better days to come.

May the family of those that are gone; be given the fortitude to bear their loss... This really hits deep... Vanity upon vanity, all is vanity... Death is inevitable, may God keep sustaining us all till we've all fulfilled purpose... Thanks for sharing this...

We don't often like to talk about death but it lives within us... May the soul of the Dead rest in peace. Amen

Knowing all this, you wonder how people can go to any length to acquire wealth, when like you said, it's all vanity eventually

It's amazing that some people still think they live here forever. If everyone is able to study what vanity means, then they will be humble and not think they own this world.
