On that very day.. When the bells of heaven rings and it’s time for me to go, when the exit door opens as entrance closes. As the angel of death knocks at my door and tells me, “time’s up! son.” With a sigh I will say, sure, peer into the world one more time and smile for the life have lived, be proud for the things that have changed and those that I couldn’t. Then slowly I will go to that endless sleep with heads up.
Until then, I wanna cleanse my house, my body and finally my spirit, prove to the world that I was here for a purpose and teach others to live by that for it pleases the soul.
Before that I wanna see the power that my body is capable of by eliminating every element of doubt in my endeavour.
Before that I wanna have a family to teach and learn from, to get the best out of life and face whatever adversity that may lie within and around us.
Before that I wanna spot a corner to sit alone for an hour or two to meditate, till my mind becomes completely free and as empty as space.
With no regrets I am gonna lay my hands on that one particular task, do it over and over till there’s nothing more to look forward to but bliss and certainty.
When all these happens, am gonna sit down to thank those who have contributed more or less to this success, say a special prayer to my loved ones. Walk through the orchard, sit on wooden chair and read one last novel, and wait to see my body dissipate
As clear as crystal, saddening but the truth. There comes a time when you got to go back to that road with unending shadows, a place with the only hope that others will follow in pursuit. It’s true that we can’t change it, we don’t know what lies beyond neither do we know where the beloved goes.
While all these are true, what we do know is that we can make a difference by changing something in our lives and society at large, however little chance we seem to have left.
