I just received really bad news........my friend, Jolene, from my secondary school days has passed away from a heart attack. It's scary. It just reminded me of the fragility of life......Though i always accepeted death as part and parcel of our journey as humans, I guess I never really had to experience the death of somebody so young, that used to be so close to me. Maybe you could say that I am lucky.....coz although i've attended a multitude of funerals, few of them have been ones for people who are very important to me.....the only one has been that of my paternal grandmother...but even then, she was at the age of 104, and thus, i pretty much accepted it quite easily.............but for someone who has just turned 21 a couple of months ago........I just dunno how to accept it. It's so shocking....especially when I think of her, how active she is and all.....sighz....i really dunno what to say.....will be going for her funeral later.....i dunno how i'll react........yet.....i'm sure that she's going to a better place, and that the Lord will be guarding her soul...............God bless you Jolene.........Love you.....
