I know life is not forever, because we are all passersby in this world. We are just travelers, but it really hurts when someone you love, you know, passes away. My nephew-in-law passed away in a tragic accident; it hit me hard- so painful. I never met him or them, but I know in my heart that they are my extended family. I can't help but cry when I am down; I can't express the pain. To ease it, I found comfort in listening to Christian songs and reading my Bible.
He is too young; he could have done a lot more things, but I think he already accomplished his mission in this world. I remembered one of the sermons I've listened to from our Pastor that everyone has a mission on this world, and when our mission is done, God will call us to be in His Paradise. I don't know if it is just a coincidence, but my nephew tweeted something about accomplishing a mission the day before he met an accident. That's his last tweet on Twitter.
Before we know his passing that night, I just came out from the bathroom when I saw on my peripheral vision that someone went to our kitchen, I thought it was my husband so I shake it off but when I went to our bed I was surprised to see him there, so I voice out and told him that I thought he is in the kitchen, he teased me smiling that I might have little friend around our apartment, he smiled on his own joke and that smile makes him a lot more younger on his age.
After a few hours, my husband found out that his nephew had met an accident and was in the hospital and underwent an operation to save his life. He was really shocked that he went to the bathroom to brush his teeth while shaking with a terrible feeling. I had my own gut feeling. I went to my Facebook, and there our world turned upside down; the first thing I saw was a tagged picture of my nephew-in-law with his friend with the description "Already missed." We were late to know.
To cut the story short, the agony is very painful. My body shook, my mind was rushing, and my husband didn't move. He cried; it was so painful, and I can feel it. He cannot utter a word; he can't think the world stops for a minute.
Cody, I just would like you to know that you are going to be missed, and a lot of people is loving you, including me. Thank you for touching our lives; you are now an angel who will watch over us. It was just too bad that we never got a chance to see each other. :(
