BEYOND THIS CACOPHONY
No matter what happens, can happen or will happen, I am one of those that refused to believe that life is a tragedy. Life can be anything but not tragedy. An act in life could be tragic but life itself, I see it as a comedy. Is it not funny that good people die and bad people live long? Is it not funny that life is not fair? Is it not funny that being a good person doesn't mean that life will be good to you?. Okay, some will say this is not funny but vanity. Now, I think vanity is funny. Is it not funny that one has to labour for everything and will still die and leave everything behind?
In this life nothing comes easy. Maybe some things comes easy but NOTHING GOOD COMES EASY. We have to fight, work, struggle and hustle for everything we desire, or wants. And as long as you are alive, you have to continue fighting, working, struggling and hustling. And we do all these, in our society and communities plaque by insecurity, racism, nepotism, famine, pandemic, inhumanity, terrorism, etc. There is no real peace anywhere in the world.
Why will a loving God creates us to suffer in this world?. So, there has to be a heaven. There must be a heaven. A place beyond, this cacophony of life. A place of true peace. A place of real rest. A place of escape from the worries, woes, pains, disappointment, disunity, disaffection and wickedness of this world. There has to be a place like this. There has to be heaven. A place God created to maybe 'compensate' us for the agonies, pains and woes we pass through in this life. If not,why did God create us and what is our benefit of coming into this life?
TOLULOPE AROTILE, Nigerian first female helicopter combatant pilot is dead and buried. She died in her prime. Age 25years old. She did not die by air crash nor in battle. The report says, a friend's car that was reversing to greet her, knocked her down and killed her. She died in an accident. That a fellow youth with dreams has just passed away in this manner, is hard for me to accept. That a loving God will allow this tragedy to befall a good, honest, hardworking and patriotic girl, is very funny to me. I have to find solace somewhere, in something. I have to be consoled somehow. The consolation is that she has gone to heaven to rest away from this cacophony, vanity, insanity, pains, injustice and inhumanities of life. Rest on girl. Rest on combatant soldier. May God who in his love gave his only begotten son to die for us, grant you eternal rest. Amen.
