What makes her death so striking(in the negative sense although) is the fact that she always listened to me, although I am not the first born. When she was sick, if I mentioned that we should go to a hospital or church or anywhere, she would agree. But if my other brothers mentioned anything like that, she won't agree. Anything I agreed upon, she always bought into it. She seemed to have looked up to me more than to any other of her children. So aside from the pain inherent in the death of a mother, I am also sad because it seems as if I was not able to prevent her death, even though she looked up to me. |
It's almost a month now since my mom died and I cannot begin to get over the pains of the loss. My father died 22 years ago when I was yet a small boy and because I went to stay with my uncles, aunt cousins, and grandparents, I was able to get over it after some time, because of how I was treated with so much love, because I was still a child. Children can easily forget pains. I have come to the recognition of the fact that there is nothing as painful as the loss of a mother. The first day my mother died, I thought that I would not be able to survive the knowledge that she is no more. Life looked so meaningless and unnecessary that it looked as if there was no need for me to continue living. Because everything I have achieved so far was to please her and make her enjoy my money and my little achievement. But she didn't even live to properly enjoy my money before dying. Although I have come to accept it, but the shock of her death still continues everyday. How can one get over the death of his mother considering the fact that someone cannot bring her back from the dead? |
Let's assume you are required to choose between 2 evils namely: a party that doesn't respect zoning arrangements and a party that doesn't respect the religious diversity of it's nation. Which one do you think is less evil? |
chrisifeanyi:Nothing. |

May the Lord's kindness and mercy heal our nation. All political parties need God's grace to touch the hearts of their leadership and flag bearers so that we can have good leaders in our country. No matter how evil our leaders are, God can change him or her so that the citizens can enjoy the fruits of good leadership. The leadership of a country is evil and corrupt because the citizens themselves are corrupt and evil. So it is usually God's punishment to a nation because of their evil and wickedness that produces evil leaders. But we hope for His mercy in Nigeria. Remember in Exodus 34:6-8, it is written that The Lord God is merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth. In Psalms 103:8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and plenteous in mercy Psalms 145:8 The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion, slow to anger, and of great mercy Joel 2:13 God is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil. |
