Death- An Unfortunate Truth of Life !!!!

Two days ago i got the news that our very close family friends Son,who was of my brother's age and was my brothers very close friend as well,lost his life in a road accident..

i just stepped in my office,Mom gave me the news, and i cudnt hold my tears...

All i was remembering was his innocent face and his sweet voice..

As a habit i call my mom almost 3-4 times in a day ... that day i called her around 10 times to make sure she was fine at home,she was fine but to my surprise my dad wasn't ...

and wen mom told me he started to cry after listening to the news i cudnt believe that...

i called him to ask him how he was... and he just heard my voice and stared to sob, i cant describe this in words... i just felt,i wish i had wings and i cud fly off to him... All he was telling me was,how much he love us and all wat he is doing is doing for us... it was touching..

but i still fail to understand from where i got the courage and i didnt shed even a single a tear... and was continuously consoling him... and that was time where i felt the bond between us...

Immediately i called my brother and told him abt Taru's death and for few seconds he was mum, and said nothing, i got scared... after few sec's he said its shocking ... and i asked him,was he OK ... he said Ya, Di am Fine... i think i have become quite emotionless, am sad but not disturbed...

i was relieved than...

But was thinking about Taru's parents, how difficult it'll be for them to live with it ...

we called Auntie and it was for the first time i was falling short of words... had nothing to say!!

next day i was leaving for NOIDA and auntie stays there, dad asked me to go and meet her...

took the address,was in NOIDA, but coudnt gather courage to go and meet her ...

i was thinking wat will i say, how will i face her.. etc... etc...

i always felt,that now am strong enough to face any thing but this incident,proved how wrong i was...
A mere thought of loosing someone,gives me sleepless nights ...
Now, i have understood how difficult it is to live without s'one who was once a part of You.

If prayers are answered, I'll pray to god may Taru's soul rest in peace and may god give courage to his family to face this unfortunate truth... (AMEN)

Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
and things are not what they seem.
Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art; to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.
