Sorrow
At 15:08, 09/02/06, I officially receive news from my mother that my uncle, the husband of my mom's eldest sister, as passed away. Innallillahi wainnalillahi rajiuun.
Admittedly, I felt it was going to happen soon. The last time I saw him ( I think I was returning something for my sis or mom) he looked so frail and thin. And my Along did call last night to inform us he was in ICU for .. erm... sesak nafas and a bit of swelling. What surprised me was.. it was sooner than I thought.
Heck. Anytime anyone dies, it's sooner than anyone thought. I definitely did not expect to hear of my grandma's death then.
If I'm not mistaken, this is the first death of someone I'm somewhat close to in a long while. Which is good, ya'know, as this means that my loved ones are living healthily. Alhamdulillah.
Heh, now my weakness in reading the Quran maybe unveiled- again- when we will baca the surah Yasin. Maybe I could read it before I sleep tonight, if I get some peace and quiet tonight.
In any case, a peaceful, quiet, loving man has left us to rejoin Allah SWT. It only makes us wonder when will be ours?
It definitely put my wishlist in perspective.
On the plus side, no work tomorrow. Yay-ness.
