Pray some...

I had to listen to few conversations in the past two days. Conversations that so disturbing about the intriguing inevitability. Yes, you guessed it right. The same inevitable we do not want to discuss, but always have at the back of our minds. About an accident and cancer...and death.

What really happens after death? This question nags me sleepless sometimes. Well accidents - any accident I come across in real life, or the accidents I hear about and read about always bring back memories of the dear one lost years ago. Couple of days ago a person was robbed of life in the middle of his biking on De Anza boulevard. Who can imagine what were his plans for lunch? Or where was he coming from at that fatal intersection? And what would be the predicament of the individual who had to be the cause of a fatality? I passed that spot about 2 hrs after that had happened. And travelled 16 years behind in memory - to the accident that changed my outlook on life. The exuberant young boy we lost in a similar fatality. Life does have a lot of quetions un answered.

Ah the conversations...two people I know were talking about one of their family member's over night nightmare dianosis and how that had categorically changed her life. A person who was considered very healthy one fine day is diagnoised with Stage 4 cancer. She is dealing with the blow - the whole family is systematically supporting her throu chemo and other gruelling things required.

Cancer doesn not stop its claws with older adults - a child barely 6 yrs old is going through life changing treatment for recovery. How very cruel it is for the parents to see their child suffer the pain and how agonizing....

And here we are complianing about the season and every day little things..I pray god to give me the Peace of mind with whatever he has blessed me with and the compassion to pray for those people who suffer. God, Give them the confidence to tide over and please Take care of them.
