The idea of death, the fear of it, haunts the human animal like nothing else; it is a mainspring of human activity - designed largely to avoid the fatality of death, to overcome it by denying in some way that it is the final destiny of man.My family back home in Canada has recently suffered the loss of a young family friend who recently passed on after his endless & continuous struggle against Drugs and Alcohol. I have known him on a personal level as well as a family level. The relations among all of us has brought us closer to the battlefronts of the disease and now God has him ensured that he is now living in a safer and better life.
This is not the first time my family has felt the shockwaves of death in the last 6 years of Drugs and Alcohol recovery as many young and older people from the program has entered God's sanctuary of happiness and peace.
I certainly hoped that every event has brought to us the harsh reality of the adversities and the depressions that we all suffer from and be able to take it what is granted and to make our lives better than what it is.
God has a plan for all of us. Sometimes this plan is to allow us to see the adversities first before finding that peace and happiness. God put us together with different people in different events because they are the ones who have messages to deliver. We must accept those people and events because if we don't, we have lost our will to fulfill our own destinies.
