My sister texted me this morning it said ‘innalillahi wa inna ilaihi roji’un, Mbak Aan passed away this morning at 09.00 am, she died in car accident otw to work’.
I was shocked. It wasn’t like I cannot accept the fact that death is inescapable but it is always sad and I mean sad to hear someone died at a very young age.
Mbak Aan was my step mom’s nephew, she was an architect and she had just lost her mum 10 days ago. Today Mbak Nadia lost her only sister and Datuk Armand lost his eldest daughter, I feel sorry for him as I’m sure no parents wants to have to burry their children. Words and tears cannot express their devastation. I called Mbak Nadia this evening, she was sobbing. I told her I’m deeply sorry for her tremendous loss, and I hope she will stay strong.
Outside of every labyrinth of sadness there is always a decisive message: we’re all going to die one day. I often wonder of how am I going to die, and I sometimes randomly asked this question to my friends, some of them said they want to die during Hajj, some other said they don’t really care how, as long as its fast, one said he wants to die during sex, the rest said they want to be surrounded by their loved ones when they died. For me, a good end is all I want. Steve Irwin once told his wife that he thought he might die someday either in a car accident or fall off a tree; he never thought a stingray barb would penetrate his chest and inject its lethal venom.
We’ll never know until we know. That’s why it would be unwise to live a life the way I do. I want a change in my life, a major change. I want to obey God as if I’ll die tomorrow and I want to live as if I’ll live forever. And I know it ain’t a walk in the park.
I’ve been very busy worrying the whole unessential thing in my life and keep forgetting the essential thing. I am absolutely aware that I got to do something about it. Only God knows when.
When he said Salam to which you answered
Your hands were trembling
You barely stood still
Your heart has never beat any faster before
Then he let you know it was the day
The day He has promised you
And you’ve agreed to the deal
And you cannot escape the destiny
Your tears doesn’t mean a thing
Your frighten was way too late
You would beg around the world above and beyond that He would give you a second chance
But damn well you know there’s no such thing as second chance
When it comes to death
