People always talk about the fact that when it rains,it pours. They also talk of things happenning in pairs. I have heard this and others but they did not make any meaning to me until these last few weeks.Within the last three weeks, I lost my mother and my brother-in-law. My heart aches, most especially since I am many miles away from home in another continent. This is the time when I should counsel my loved ones but distance makes this impossible.
There are things that happen to a person that do have the possibility of changing the person. These incidents of the last three weeks made me to realize that whatever one wants to do, one must do it now. One must live each day as his last. This is because one does not know what will happen next. When I was leaving Nigeria this year February, I told my mother I would be back to see her. That is not possible anymore.Not only that, I would be going back to start taking care of my nephews because their father is no more.How life changes us all. So, whatever you think you need to do to help another, just do it now!
