It's been eleven years but sometimes still feels unreal that you left so soon. I'm an eternally grateful to God for the portion of the journey that we shared together. You are a blessing and I am looking forward to the great reunion.

Eleven years have passed, yet the taste of cherished moments we once shared still lingers on my tongue. Among them, I savour the bittersweet symphony of sacrifices made and lessons learned—each a timeless gem, forever etched in the fabric of my being. Despite the geographical expanse between us, the distance is a mirage compared to the closeness you've eternally secured within the chambers of my heart.

I acknowledge the indelible mark you've left on the canvas of my life. Your influence is a beacon that continues to illuminate my path. And as the years unfold, the resonance of your teachings remains a comforting melody, a constant reminder of your profound impact on my journey.

Though physical separation may cast its shadow, know that you reside in the very essence of my being. Love and gratitude, like twin companions, accompany the recollections of our shared adventures. I carry your spirit with me, a silent companion through the ebb and flow of life.

I bid farewell with a promise that the echoes of our connection will reverberate through the corridors of time until we meet again, never to part. Until then, I hold the tapestry of our memories close, and your melody will always play in the symphony of life.

We came to visit
In spirit, we assembled
Knowing that from here you journeyed among the stars
And unfurled across the globe
From the warm soil of Greensboro
To the Green Vale in the Irish Isle
To the sky above Africa
Everywhere, your presence
We feel, we feel, we yearn
We feed of what you left
And cling to the memories that never fade

We speak life
In the knowledge that it is not over.

He is in it.
No limits…no boundary

May the day come.

‘We will stand as children of the promise
We will fix our eyes on Him our soul's reward
Till the race is finished and the work is done
We'll walk by faith and not by sight’

Segun, It’s been 9 years you departed this sinful world. My consolation is that you are in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ. We shall meet again. Rest on my gentle friend.

Death shall one day be swallowed up in victory ✌...
For indeed death is a mystery only to us mortals... a mystery like darkness which will disappear when the new and glorious day dawns...

Narratives

Verse 1

We arrived into a narrative
Of not our making
Setting us on a path of mystery
The narrative moves us
In ways unknown
Itinerary undefined
Destination death.

May the day come.

As it is written: "I have made you a father of many nations." He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed--the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that were not.

'...When all is said and done

The hero will be the peacemaker

That makes it easier for others to breath

A little better

That lend a hand

To the man on his knees

Few weeks ago, my daughter asked me for one question, I may want to ask God if he is standing before me right now.

I know we can't question God but the only question I will ask is why did you take my brother so soon?

There are tears that can get washed up with the hope that the situation can be reversed, what of when the situation can not be reversed.

I think of you everyday. I love you and miss you my brother.

Your life proves the saying that "It's not how long you live but how you live that is important", though would have loved to have both. You were such a shinning star and like a star your light emitted years ago continues to shine through.

As we always acknowledge, our story, our future is not in human hand. In the little time that we have here, may we live with it with dignity in the understanding that nothing endures in this life.

The times are continually changin’
We are waiting
Lost in its ambiguity
Waiting for clarity
Seeking clues
In the infinity of Space?
Quantum consciousness?
Lost lost lost
Your little one innocently as:
‘Is my daddy on the phone?’

40 yrs. ago today, a true great/gentle man was born. Its still a day to be cherished. Your early departure has left a void that no man can fill. I will still celebrate your life because you are one of a kind.
