Why do we have to die? I just lost an uncle. The liquid payout for this post will be dedicated to someone in need.

in #death7 years ago (edited)

Today is not the happy one for me. My uncle, my adviser, my strength has left this earth. 

He was a nice man, very bold and courageous but God-fearing. When my dad was passing through hard times, he was always there for him. 

Why do good people have to die?


This makes me remember how empty and valueless all our possessions are when death comes knocking. He has a good house, beautiful wife and two lovely  sons, yet he left them and passed out. 

Death you are so cruel. I wish I can bring him back. I wish I can stop good people from dying. Yet, it is just a wish. 


When we leave this world, only what we did will be remembered; good or bad. Because we do not know when we would depart, let us try as much as we can to put a smile on someone's face. Let us stop focusing on "us" alone. Everything you are working hard to accumulate, you could leave all in a twinkle of an eye when that uncalled visitor visits.

I dedicate the entire Liquid Payout to just one person who is in need of financial help. I do not know what it will worth, but I hope it helps in a little way.

Tell me how this Sbd can help you solve a financial need and you may qualify to receive the payout.

So sorry for your loss dear...death is truly cruel,people like u shouldn't have to go through things like this

@ogoowinner, I might not know exactly how you felt about it, but I know how am feeling because I just lost my bossom friend and junior colleague in school. I have been looking for ways to vent my growing pain which is burning deep inside me, Her name is Emmanuella, she suffered a little stomach ache, and I ask "how can stomach ache kill somebody? " Ella, was an intelligent,beautiful and easy going person, most of all she had a penchant to learn more, just like me. I even reserved my 200 level notes for her to use as this semester is starting. I font K kw how I'll be able to cope without my reading partner, but I believe God knows best. Take heart dear.

I'm sorry for your loss. I upvoted to help someone in need.

Thanks very much.

Hey ogoo, take heart dear. I don't know what to say that hasn't already been Said here. Pls accept my sincerest condolences.

Ehya,,, thats really sad,,, i know what it means to loose family,,, i just lost a close friend too,,, he was as close as fam,,,, but at the end, all is well,, we should be thankful for our own lives

Peace....I was making jokes because I am a comedian but then I read better the article and I edited it...RIP

I upvoted my own comment, not because it's mine but because I believe it's the most profound and touching comment ever written on the steem blockchain

Using the sbd to register my exam jamb

Thank you.

Feeling so sorry for you!!All Steemians are here with you supporting!!!

Thanks. I appreciate this.

I'm sorry to hear that..

Sorry for your loss. If you and your uncle are believer's in Jesus Christ, you will be reunited one day. God Bless.

Thank you.

My most sincere condolence to you on this irreparable loss. Sadly, death is the end of all flesh; each death is just a gentle reminder of our mortality. Death like tax and rain are inevitable in this present life. It also appears the good die young. As cliche as it may sound, that is the simple truth. The time they say heal all wounds, but I have found out that is not so true. Time may reduce the pain, but in most cases, the wound never heals. I hope he finds peace at last. Steem on and thank you for the kind gesture of giving out the liquid SBD to someone in need. It takes a good heart to give when one is in pain. Steem on.

Regards,
@greenrun

Thanks very much for this warm condolence. I wish I have enough energy to reply better.

Do not bother much about that. I understand how that feels. Being there too many times.

Sorry for the loss ogoowinner, everyone dies just that we notice good people's deaths.They leave such a void in our hearts.

Thank you.

Do accept my sympathy for the loss of your loved one. And may the soul of the departed RIP, Amen.

Death and dying are a part and parcel of life and living and therefore cannot be avoided. We must accept that fate as all nature is built to pass away someday.

However, that is the more reason why we must live respected and die regretted. We must, every day in every way, continually add value to human life. We must strive to leave this earth better than we met it. That is the only way we can become co-creators with the Universe.

And, by the way, I am deeply impressed by your sense of duty and sacrifice to do charity with the proceeds from this posting. I add my strength to yours to enable you do that which your heart directs you to do.

Be well.

However, that is the more reason why we must live respected and die regretted. We must, every day in every way, continually add value to human life. We must strive to leave this earth better than we met it. That is the only way we can become co-creators with the Universe.

Worth remembering always.

Thanks very much.

I don't know how to start telling you how sorry i am to hear this dear ,it must be really hard for you to bear , this reminds me of an incident that occured to me when i heard that my uncle who was a soldier based in lagos has been muderd ,i was writing mathematics in waec (west african examination coincil) with this news on my doorstep i was demoralized but i got back on my feet and so will you

God will always give you the strength to be and stay strong this period ..

Take heart

Thanks very much bro.

no problem just stay strong

Hello @ogoowinner

I am very sorry for what happened. I believe that your uncle is with the Lord.

Life has never ceased to amaze me. The people who are good die early while the bad ones seems to have eternal life.

I pray that God will give you and your Family the fortitude to bear the loss.

Thanks for shairing

Sorry to hear about your loss. Thanks for the warm comment here.

Thanks for y too

No one can prepare you for a loss, it comes like a swift wind. However, take comfort in knowing that he is now resting in the arms of our Lord. May his soul rest in peace 😞

You don't know how sorry I am to hear of this. I mean, this year has not exactly been on the good side when it comes to this. Please stay strong and be there for your uncle's wife and children. They would need all the help they can get. Really sorry.

Sorry for the loss dear, only a heartless person wil wNt dz sbd no matter what...ur uncle memory lives on!

@ogoowinner Sorry for your loss. I pray that the good Lord will comfort your family.

Right now i'm finding it difficult securing a job after school. I've dropped my CV to several companies and i've also done some couple of interviews all to no avail. The steemit community is really helping me a lot with some few payouts.
This SDB payout will help pay part of my house rent that is due already. I'm already having sleepless night thinking where to raise the money form. I only hope for a miracle before i run out of time...

I just lost my best friend,brother today,i still dont believe it ,i even made a fictional story of it to tell the level of disbelief i have for the news,he promised to be here on monday,and now monday would come and i wont see him,forever is an awefully long time

Am sorry fr your loss

I have nothing much to say, than... It's gonna be fine, it's gonna be well, it's gonna be okay... Death is inevitable, we all just have to face it when it comes.. A time to live and a time to leave the earth!

To everything there is always a reason. God will give you the fortitude to bear the loss. Take heart friend!

I am deeply sorry for your loss Ogoo. It well with you and his family.

Sorry for your loss. So amazing of you to turn your grief into a gift for someone. <3 Love n Light

Take heart dear. Life is all about time. Meaning, time to born and time to die. Is a pity. But God shall give you the strong heart to be able to witstand this shock. May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace.Amen

Oh mum, am so sorry about your uncle .
Please take heart, the lord is your strenght.
Sorry ma.

So sorry for your loss..death is inevitable. Everybody must die someday, but our prayers each passing day should be that before death comes knocking may we all have achieved all our purpose on earth and When we are aged. I know it is hard to forget someone that gave you somuch to remember, but all the same i pray God grants peace to the soul of your dearly departed. Amen, accept my condolences.

In this life death is certain for everyone but we don't know when and how it will come. Death is one of those things we humans can't interpret. Feel your pain because I lost mine too. Take heart man. May his gentle soul rest in peace. Amen.

I will use the SBD to register for Jamb exam.

My goodness, I'm so sorry, I know how it feels you've gotta take heart and remain strong God knows best 😓😓😓😓😓😓

I feel your pain. I'm just so bad at comforting people, i always dont have the right words. Just know you are loved abd i mean it. Take heart and be strong. I just lost someone too, a younger bro, he's to be buried today.

I know words of mouth won't be enough to express the sorrow you feel and neither can it express how we also feel about your pain. There is no way we can stop death from taking away our loved ones when their time is up, we can only ensure we do our best to put smiles on their face while they lived and keep living the good legacy they leave behind. I pray to God to grant the family the fortitude to bear the great loss which had befallen them. For the liquid reward from the post, I would have loved to have it cos I Ned a lot of money for my project in school which will commence soon. But then I remembered a post which was made by @steem-lagos about a young girl, the daughter of a fellow steemian who needs a lot of money to carryout heart surgery. The link is here

Ogoo, you said you wish you could do something to stop death from taking people away; that is now possible, you can stop untimely death from taking this beloved girl away from us by donating the reward to this girl. Do this for the sake of your uncle and he will look down from heaven and smile at you. Pls save little Nicole's life

Death is inevitable. We all die one day, what we do on earth determines how we will be remembered good or bad. I also ask the same question why do good people have to die when they are needed the most?

Sorry for your loss dear... I pray he's in a better place now.

i feel really sorry to hear this accept my condolences ..i know that feeling when some one really close to our heart goes away for us

Sorry about this lost. May God grant you the fortitude to bear the loss.

Hello ma'am, am so sorry about your loss, I pray his soul rest in perfect peace and God shall surely provide someone else who would do more than he has done or has been doing. Talking about the help your payout can do is another great opportunity for me to give testimonies, just yesterday, I got a notification that I have been offered admission to study visual art in the University of Lagos, though, I had been given this admission before towards the ending of last year, but for some reasons better known to the school authority, the admission merit list was withdrawn and we aspirants were told that we have to wait until jamb organization itself offers us admission. Many had seen their admission notification since last year but I didn't, I partially gave you on it already, but it eventually came up yesterday. Just like a great surprise that I never planned for, Now I need to pay the sum of about seventy thousand naira within a month to become a legal student of unilag but, how do I pay that even when I add to finance the house with what I aquire here on Steemit?

Ahh!! So sorry dear, please accept my condolence. I know how you feel, I felt so too when I lost my grandpa, yes he was old enough but the value his actions added to my life and many others makes us miss him everyday. But I always console myself by saying that God needed him in heaven and he has to answer and its my duty to keep and follow his legacy. I think you should find some condolence in that too. May God comfort your heart.

Speaking of being in need, honestly, it difficult for me asking considering the above news even though I'm in very serious need of some cash.

Hi @ogoowinner
I just woke up this morning and your blog was the first thing on my mind not knowing i will see this. I am so sorry for your loss dear, God knows the best. Accept my condolences and don't keep crying ok. You are a winner, stay a winner.

It's sad @ogoowinner, it's always sad.

The loss of a dear one is never easy, it actually never really heals with time-like a scab over a wound, it bleeds afresh when opened.

All you have to do is to remember what your uncle had always wanted for you and be that person. Nothing will make him happier.

The pain will grow dull my dear, sometime, somehow.

Jide obi gi aka, and don't forget God.

accept my condolences i will help by upvoting i knew its not much but i want to do it with my heart that's all i want to say at this moment and urge everyone to do the same

now that what you are going through right now is very difficult, just know that God knows why......
The loss of someone so dear to us is nevever easy....
it comes like a swift wind. But take comfort in knowing that he is now resting in the arms of our Lord.
Im truly sorry for your loss.😥😰😪😪

Take heart dear. There is a saying that only those carrying the coffin knows how heavy it is. Death is inevitable and so we must all lose someone someday. Everybody has had a fair share, now it's yours. Understand it is the way life is. This should spur us to live better knowing that we can't tell the hour nor day. Anyway about the payout, I've never received anything since joining steemit and I would love to as the payout will help me sort out my younger sisters school fees is but it feels weird asking for that on this post. Please take heart
