Yesterday night, my thoughts went on thinking about life after death (Might be, I thought about my Uncle's). And is death of a person, you like, so painful? I remember my dad calling up n informing Somesh Uncle expired. And again, within a month, VenkateswaraRao(V) Uncle passed away. This happened a year and a half back. I used to call them mamayya which made me feel so near to them. I used to talk to them normally only, but might be, I never used to know how to express my feelings towards them that they are my favorite mamayya's. They are more than close relatives, to my dad n mom, u can say them as best friends to our family. I know how much my dad is missing them even now. He only says what can we do, n we can't get them back. Yeah, it's the Truth that none can deny.
My V mamayya's death was so horrible. It was a car accident. He was driving on the highway and u know how lorry people drive over there. The car hit the lorry and it fell into the river near by. Only after 3 days, people knew what happened and knew about the body there. The body was too horribly damaged. The skin came out so easily with the creatures nearby. A dreadful scenario. It's only the body, right. No soul. It just got damaged. If soul is there, he would definitely have been alive. Body and soul r totally different. When we are alive, we take care of our body so much that we tend to forget to care for our soul. We never even ask what does it really want? We just move towards worldly attractions. We just will strive throughtout our life to make it comfortable by ignoring our soul. We just think about ourselves. That's how, things are turning out. I donno how many of u will agree?
I remember Robert Frost's poem: Miles to go before I sleep..... It's one of my favorite's, which makes me think to do many things in life. I feel strongly, that we need to do something good, which makes us happy throughout our life, or even after life, since, life is too short and we all need to use it in proper means. I remember my Uncle's doing that. Helping the needy and being very receptive. They talk with everyone in a sweet way. Might be, that's why I liked them and am even still thinking of them. Missing them a lot too.
May their soul rest in peace.

very true.. we are so behind looking after the way we look and feel that we totally forget about our soul.. We seriously need to do something to give back to the society what god has given us.
