Death-Natural part of Life
I feel
sad to hear about a gutted train carriage, which caught fire from an electrical
short circuit killing at least 32, in Nellore on July 30, 2012. The express
train carried sleeping passengers to the southern Indian city of Chennai. The
news showed 35 persons charred to death in the last coach of Chennai
express.
My prayer goes for those who
are no more, may their souls rest in peace, I pray for all their relatives who
are shocked by this horrifying news that they find strength to not only accept
this loss, but also be able to continue in faith and hope.
Every death
is a reminder for us, that earth is not a permanent place to any of us in this
world, I am sure; none of those persons who died would have got even a clue that
this journey would have been the final one.
Yet death visited them, when they were fast asleep in the early hours.
We never
know when our time will come, under what circumstances, but when it’s time to
leave the earth, I would like to find myself busy doing any of these favourite
things I love - singing, listening to music,
meditating, reading inspiriting books, helping those who require my support, walking,
enjoying myself in the company of my family& friends, discovering new
places, blogging and the list will continue as I keep exploring more and more
of what is in me.
Today, I re
commit myself to all that I enjoy doing, and take every day as it comes with
great enthusiasm, and excitement, trusting that each day I am reborn to find some newness
in me, and reinventing myself again to keep discovering my purpose in life.
Each
night, when I go to sleep, I die. And
the next morning, when I wake up, I am reborn.” Mahatma Gandhi.
Be Blessed & Be Happy!
Just today I was thinking of how we have to keep redefining ourselves and discovering our purpose. Thanks for this, Janet.
