Compliment of the hour of the day to you all, i trust we are all doing great. Today i want to share with you the pains of loosing a mother.
Burial for aged people are always of celebrations. The only thing we need to know is that, the grief in our heart will be too much at the moment of the funeral.
No Mather how one is aged, once he/she is pronounced death by the Ductor the people must shade tears for the lost.
At this point, all the good deed of the person will be remembered and the crying continues.
Mothers are great assets in our respective families and no home is complete without a mother.
It was on the 8th of April 2023 when my friend call me that i should accompanied him to his aunt burial. We left for the burial a day before, in order to join at the way keep.
Many sets were played and a lot of dancing took place that night but of all this, the pain of loosing a mother was in heart of the children and family.
As tradition and custom demands, the celebration continued in the morning. Here the first daughter had to moved round the village accompanied by her age with powder all over her body.
After this, the masquerade took her for a dance too. Some of this pictures will be displayed below.
At first, many who stood by the side were scared but an instruction was passed that once the masquerade comes closer to you, you only need to squared down. All the villagers who assembled to watch the dance that morning, obeyed the rules which were given as the masquerade demonstrated in its form.
Immediately after this stage, the interment took place and the man of God preach to the people that the journey is for all, just like the way Mama is lying today that one day everyone will surely passed through the same way.
In conclusion, Mama has finished her services here on earth but how about you who is still privilege to see today?
How are you planning to spend your eternity?
What contributions have you made in life to your family, society and the world at large?
What will you be remembered for after your departure on earth?
Let us put on a good attitude and do all our possible best to serve our creator now that we still have the opportunity before darkness comes.
Thank you for your time.
Funerals are never nice but unfortunately it is something that is going to happen with all of us, experiencing the death of a loved one.
I know there are many culture traditions but I often think that same day burials is so much less painful not only for the family but also for friends. However, I doubt if we will ever see it happening.
