Life has many struggles, and with the help of God, we are equipped to overcome the obstacles in our lives. Today is a challenging time in our lives, but we keep hearing a voice that says, "Grieve not for me. To those I am leaving behind, remember the good and troubled times, the laughter, the journey I've walked over the years, the exceptional life I lived until the very end. I know that my sudden departure has created a gloomy situation in each of your lives but keep smiling and surely the sun will eventually shine through because death is inevitable.
