One's life can be measured by those he leaves behind.
Death is the permanent end of the life of a biological organism. Death may refer to the end of life as either an event or condition.
When I deeply contemplate the transient nature of human life, I realize that,from beginning to end, life is impermanent like an illusion. We have not yet heard of anyone who lived ten thousand years. How fleeting is a lifetime!Who in this world today can maintain a human form for even a hundred years?There is no knowing whether I will die first or others, whether death will occur today or tomorrow. We depart one after another more quickly than the dewdrops onthe roots or the tips of the blades of grasses. So it is said. Hence, we mayhave radiant faces in the morning, but by evening we may turn into white ashes.Once the winds of impermanence have blown, our eyes are instantly closed and ourbreath stops forever. Then, our radiant face changes its color, and theattractive countenance like peach and plum blossoms is lost.
Thus the ephemeral nature of human existence is such that death comes to youngand old alike without discrimination. So we should all quickly take to heart thematter of the greatest importance of the afterlife,livng our live humbly and respectfully. Entrust ourselves deeply to Islam and may be able to recite the Dua Kalimah Syahadah on our deathbed.
Grief is a multi-faceted response to loss. Although conventionally focused on the emotional response to loss, it also has a physical, cognitive, behavioural, social and philosophical dimensions. Common to human experience is the death of a loved one, be they friend, family, or other.Wearing dark, sombre clothes is one practice followed in many countries, though other forms of dress are also seen.
The dead they sleep a long, long sleep;The dead they rest, and their rest is
deep;The dead have peace, but the living weep.
A thousand times we needed you
A thousand times we cried
If love alone could have saved you you never
would have diedA heart of gold stopped beating two twinkling
eyes closed to restGod broke our hearts to prove he only took the
bestnever has a day goes by that you’re not in my
heart and my soul.For everything there is a
season,And a time for every matter under
heaven:A time to be born, and a time to
die;A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is
planted;A time to kill, and a time to
heal;A time to break down, and a time to build
up;A time to weep, and a time to
laugh;A time to mourn, and a time to
dance;A time to throw away stones, and a time to
gather
stones
together;A time to embrace,
And a time to refrain from
embracing;A time to seek, and a time to
lose;A time to keep, and a time to throw
away;A time to tear, and a time to
sew;A time to keep silence, and a time to
speak;A time to love, and a time to
hate,A time for war, and a time for
peace.
With this, I wished to extend my sincerest
condolences to all those who have recently lost a family member,a friend,a
neighbour or a pet.They will always be in my prayers.And as much as it
hurts,it
would stop one day.Cherish the memories we had with them and learn
to appreciate
those who are still living.
I am just a humble human being,living my life the way
I think is best.I honour my religion.I value my family and friends.And if I
ever
did or say something that has hurt anyone's feelings before,I am truly
sorry and
wished to seek for your forgiveness.For now,I am hanging my head low in memory of those
who have gone before us.Let's together pray that their soul will be blessed
and they be placed alongside the people of faith.Insyallah.
Amin.
Your most humble,
Kat
