Death 🥀

in sad •  6 years ago  (edited)

Who would've known that my return post to steemit would be one about death? 

There I was last night getting ready to go to bed when I start seeing updates from people talking about a particular young Nigerian steemian who passed away. I'm curious, I wanted to know who it was, do I know him? Have we spoken before? Have our paths crossed before? So I'm looking, searching for a photo, somethin, anything, and then I find one, a name, @onos it's familiar, maybe in one of the groups I joined or something I'm still curious so I keep searching till I see a photo @vheobong posted, good looking young man ... but death doesn't care about looks or age does it? 

Life is short! Way too short and one day we all will answer the call, some sooner and others later but definetly. Everyone has good things to say about the young man and that just has me thinking, when eventually my time comes will people have such good things to say about me too? In the end what really counts is not how long you lived but how well. 

Steemit really has brought a lot of people together and even in hard times has made people come together to show so much support. I don't even know him personally but my heart too is broken. 

My prayers go out to his Family, his friends, and everyone who knew him, God give you all the strength to bear this painful loss and heal your hearts. 🥀

RIP @onos please don't forget to tell God to comfort everyone crying for you...  walk into the light without fear, nothing can harm you now 🥀

It should be one of the instead of on of the.
