It is 1:33 am and I just decided to create and post my very first blog. I always thought blogs were for people with too much time on their hands, or people who had problems to vent. Today I realized a blog is simply someone with a voice. From today this blog is my voice.
Today felt like no special day for me, it was just another Monday, it was rainy and the sun didn't really shine. Now that the day is over I realize how special it really was. Yesterday I got news that my cousin had passed, she was only in her 20's and was lying dead in her room for two days. So stepping out of today's self absorbed cloud of unappreciative thinking I realize the following:
My life is beautiful, I have so many things to smile about, today's rain was beautiful not gloomy - it was water ( I love water ), my walk to the train was humbling not depressing, the people on the train were not strangers they were fathers, daughters, mothers, sisters, brothers, they were just like me, they dream and want the same things as me. I realized how fragile this all is, i realized that I am blessed because I have so many people who love me, that I would never lay dead in a room for two days undiscovered. I wonder about her last thoughts, her last fight for breath or maybe she didn't fight, I wonder what she felt and I wonder if she is no longer in pain.
I have decided to design a "this beautiful life" shirt in appreciation of everyday I draw breath. So as I launch my new clothing line I am truly grateful for the gift of life we all take for granted until it's too late.
Today be grateful, your life may not seem grateful but look again!
Rest in peace Priscilla Changachirere & Taryn Leonard beautiful lives that ended way too soon.
Bless
