REASON WITH ME; does life worth bragging about?

source
Yesterday was one of the day I learnt the best lesson of life, I learnt the lesson of all time which changed my reasoning and perspective and gave me a second thought about life, a lesson I will never forget and I pray to God to enable me to act on my today's resolutions.
I lost one of my christian brother on a drastic motor accident since last week friday and today was the burial ceremony, but I it really done on me today my todays experience change my perspective about life that I personally was tired of life to the point I asked myself the question; what is life, and does it worth bragging for?
If you have been in a scenerio where you were with someone possibly a close relative this hour, after an hour you heard that the person you were with few hours ago is death, I don't know how you will feel like, if you are a sympathetic person, you will feel like the world is coming to an end.
I stood yesterday watching the young man lying in state inanimate as if he wasn't once a lifely person, this experience really struct me and it's really a wakeup call for you and I.
Death on earth is the call everyone must answer to, but how prepared are you to answer the call of nature?
The world we lived in is a market square, we all came in a day as one who goes to the market and someday sooner or later, we will all return home, but what is necessary is, what are you buying in the market you went, do you buy a priceless and valuable items with your money(purpose in life) or do you just went to the market to buy nothing or worthless items?
Think about it.
At times I see many people bragging, boosting and puffing about life, some fighting, quarrelling, killing and canvassing for power, some will say;
DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?
I will just ask myself; does this person really know what life is all about?
Life that was given to you freely where you don't even have any control over it, then why are you bragging about?
What do you have that you are so proud about?
What do you have that you will not live it all here and others will take possession of it while you are no where to be found?
What do you have that is yours and another person doesn't have?
Life is very simple and easy when you know the rules and principle and follow and apply it accordingly, they is nothing worth killing or dying for in life because everything is vanity upon vanity, because you have the little power given to you at your disposal and you want to use it on others so as to remain at the top? sorry all these things shall soon become an history when Mr. DEATH knock on your door, you can't escape it, because death has no friend nor enermy, it's natural and doesn't have a certain limit, it visits everyone at their own appointed time, and non of us mortals knows the our own appointed time when death will visit us except our creator, so do the very best you can while you are alife to live a righteous life, live a life that people will emulate, live a life that people will always miss your presence when you are not available, the time we have to spend of earth is very short which makes life too to be very short, so live appropriately, live responsibly, live as if tomorrow will not come, live as if you are going to die the next moments because you do not know the hour or minute Mr. DEATH will visit you, and when he visits you, they is no repentant in the grave, the only opportunity you have is the now, and the only chance you have to amend your life is today, they is no second chance,
it meant just once for one to be born into the world and just once too for one to die and after words comes judgement.
After the life on earth still is another life in the heavenly state and that one is eternal, so you decide either to live in eternal joy with GOD and HIS angels for those who do good or to suffer eternal condemnation in hell fire with satan and his agents and all those who do evil, and your life here on earth, what you do and the way you live your life now major determines where you will be when you die as the earth is the preparatory ground for the next life.
Isn't it funny that when you where born, you were crying into the world while others were rejoicing and when you die, you will be rejoicing while others will be crying?
THINK ABOUT THIS!!!
When you were born, you were crying because you have been born into the world of sin, death, suffering and pains, but others around you were rejoicing of which non of them has a knowledge of why you are crying, but when you die, you are rejoicing that you are from and have leave this world of sin, pains and death to a place where such(sin, pains and death) will not exist while others will be crying that you have live them, but can anyone do without crying over the death of a love one?
Absolutely no, even Jesus Christ cried over the death of his friend lazurus, personally, I use to say, Am strong, I have the mind, I can't cry over someone's death, but yesterday I realised that I was just bragging and boosting saying what I have no knowledge about, people will always cry over the death of a love one even if he is old or not, to cry over the death of a love one is a natural phenomenon because of the mutual bond and affection existing between both parties, nevertheless, when crying, it must have a limit for after death on earth opens the chapter of a new life of eternal in the heavenly states, because;
unless a seed falls down and die, it can not live.
You are the seed here on earth, to live experience the eternal live, you must give way to death to the mortal body for the mortal body can't access the eternal state.
DOES LIVE WORTH BRAGGING ABOUT?
HOW DO YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE?
DOES LIVE WORTH BRAGGING ABOUT?
Absolutely, life doesn't worth bragging about, and those that brag simply have no knowledge about life.
When you experience loosing a close friend or relative, then you will actually think deeper about this life.
