We complain so much in life, often about trivial things, that we forget to appreciate what we have. We get caught up in the race of life, worrying about what we don't have, what we haven't achieved yet, and the minor inconveniences that come our way. But one of the greatest gifts in life is simply being alive.

This is the realizations I had yesterday, after hearing about the unfortunate and untimely death of one of my school mates.

It was already a rough day, I have been going through a low phase, and the news of him passing away just shook me!😢

The guy was as old as me, we studied together for years. 💔

Though I never spent a lot of time with him still the memory of him has been haunting me since yesterday.😞

I am unable to sleep, and I just wonder what his family must be going through.

He was too young to go, and how he passed away is just unfortunate 😔

This incident made me realise all the stress and worries we carry just fade away with life. One moment we are here, and the next moment, we might not be even alive! Life is incredibly unpredictable and fragile. 😔

All we truly have is today and this moment. It's a reminder to cherish every day, to not let trivial worries consume us, and to live fully and with purpose.

I hope his soul finds peace wherever he is.🙏🏻

His passing has reminded me of the importance of living with gratitude, kindness, and love.

Life is uncertain, and that's why we need to embrace it, love deeply, forgive easily, and always be kind.

Let's not wait for a wake-up call to realize what truly matters. Hold your loved ones close, tell them you love them, and make the most of every moment you have.
