Sometimes in life a something happens which which makes you sit back and think about everything again.when you want to push that pause button. Two days ago one of my classmates passed away following a heart attack. He was just 19. Just 19.
There is a strange numbness when I think of him. The happiest and the most lovable guy of our batch, who could not have ever hurt someone, has left us and all that remains is a grief stricken family and his memories. We take everything so casually and so lightly, we often fail to realise that our life is maybe not just ours. Yes we are the masters of our own wills but there are so many people in and around us who are connected to us- family, friends, acquaintances, so many of them. All that is left behind now is a gaping hole, which may never heal now.
He must have had certain expectations, same dreams for himself, his family, his parents. He must have sought certain heights that he wanted to achieve, some aspirations. Nothing can turn back now.
The reason why I say that that this makes me me sit back and think about everything is that this unfortunate incident makes me realise the many anomalies of life. How uncertain things are, how quickly they can change. So today I start my day thinking about it, giving my best shot, trying with all my rejuvenation again. Neither me nor you have even an outside chance of even predicting what is going to happen next. So why not live today as if its going to be our last day. Why not give every thing we have, try our best, and live the way we should, in the moment.
