After a decade long...!!!!

After a decade long I bumped into my blog today..!!! Ah the life with all its ups and downs been going smooth so far..! In this pandemic Covid-19  around  we all have been pushed into the four walls err locked up inside our own home. All festivities and functions are either postponed or done in a private affair. It's good in a way because we can still enjoy the glory through virtual.. thanks to the technology. Also sometimes it hurts not to give a proper sendoff to persons we lost due to natural death.This is also done in a private affair too..this could be never a treat to watch over ..only that we all could do is remembering the cherished moments we had with them.  Lost one of my relative in this way..sad!

We don't realize the value of a person until we lose them not that death only have to snatch them away but often we forget to appreciate them..acknowledge their presence in our life..sometimes we behave as if we are doing them a favor of being in our life....!!! Too bad inception which we all need to shed this thinking otherwise called an EGO..!!

Read somewhere (i have this habit of reading so many journals i often forget where)
A man was grieving heavily for his lost wife..! He met a fellow human in a park where he was wailing for his beloved wife's sudden death. The other guy felt so much pity on him and asked the reason. Feeling exhausted the man told how he lost the love of his life..!!! The other man consoled and said "Thank God i do not have to undergo all these troubles in my life".! When asked he said "I have no one to grieve for..Thank God..! I have no wife, no siblings, no kids and was estranged from my birth family. In all my fifty plus years i am leading a life on my own terms. I am glad that I never married..can't even imagine the kind of pain you are in now..!!! The married guy baffled at this  and realized how fortunate he had been to have a loving companion who had given him all,a beautiful home, loving Son ..a family for 36 years..!!! He felt the realization that he should not grieve anymore for the loss but should happily relive those precious moments he spent with her all through the years. Though he still feel the pain but he has something to cherish till his end..!! He hugged the other fella and told you have enlightened me.Thanks for your support and walked briskly back to his home..!!

"I have no one to grieve for..Thank God.."..This profound statement had an impact on me..! Yes we feel immense pain when we lose our dear ones  but we feel because we lost something so precious to us..! Something not everyone in the world has what we have..! We should be happy that we have amazing people whom we call a family around us. Yes we would feel the pain but we are fortunate enough to cherish those valuable moments.

Well,  when you make someone feel valuable you are just telling them "We have a reason for being here for each other..Thank you for showing up.." It's like gifting them beyond price and I believe that's one of the most important human skill. Nothing can beat the happiness you bring on someone who values you for just being who you are , after all people are unique and priceless..!!!
