Surreal,

is what life is.

I was waiting for Samad when I opened the Facebook homepage on my Curve. I read through the status updates. I knew it was true before I could confirm it.

Death, is as inevitable as the setting of the sun.
Death does not choose.
Death does not discriminate.

A beautiful talent has been lost.

And I am shattered because of it.

The fact that a person, who wanted to live more than anyone else does, is taken away, crushed me to pieces. I go through every day with complaints that I am not living my life my own way, that I am living it for other people, when someone else was fighting hard for a chance to keep on living. I continue my life with no dream and no passion, when someone else with hopes and dreams so clear went away before achieving them.

I am shattered by the fact that all my life, I have failed to remind myself that death can come by any moment, and take me away from everyone and everything that I care for. I take my mother for granted, thinking that she will always be with me, and expecting her to know that I love her more than anything in the world without ever telling her. I continue to blame my father for everything that I am today, never realizing that, without him, I would be nothing.

The loss have made me look at life in a different way.
I will live everyday of my life without any regrets. I will live it for myself, as well as for the others. I will be more passionate in what I do, and try to do best.

Even though I did not know you, I can tell that you were an amazing person.
You were an inspiration to many, and now, even after you're gone, you still are.
May Allah bless your soul, and grant you the gift of Heaven.
Al-fatihah.
