A couple of days ago, a close relative of mine was laid to rest. He died at the age of 70, he lived an epicurean life; hey, he was successful.

He sent his children overseas, acquired fleet of cars and built his own house. As a matter of fact, he owned everything an average person the streets of Nigeria aims to achieve.

Additionally, he was a benevolent individual; he was there for everyone, both the young and old, the poor and the rich, he made himself accessible to everyone who was willing to reach out. While he gave so much of himself to others, no one could rescue him when he battled a terminal disease for several months.

He was a renowned warrior, however, he lost the bout with death. Money couldn’t salvage the situation, there was no exchange for the benevolence he had shown over the years.

In the end, we must come to the realization that life is meaningless. After all is said and done, man would lay down and meet his creator. Life has no exact definition, but it must be lived through, each day would come at you rapidly just so you can edge closer to your grave.
