Surprisngly known life happenings.

I tend to think that all days are the same, the only difference is the feeling that comes with each day. The feel good emotions make some memorable with good future memories while the emotions considered negative, even though there no negative feelings, come with memories not so pleasant, sometimes triggering tears and sorrow. Today was one of the latter. As my norm of checking on my mother after work, I made a phone a call and quickly inquired how her day was.

Its 5pm, your mother picks your call and tells you she is preparing to go to a funeral. So I probe more to understand whose funeral, then you learn it is that guy who you were with in primary school. Then a sad reality hits you, all the memory of loss, helplessness and fear that come with grief😞. Robert was my classmate, good looking, never talkative. I remember he used to play football and loved it so much. We parted ways after KCPE exams and never had much contact, until we recently connected on facebook. I feel so sad this evening to lose someone I have known but never really had a relationship.  May the heavens grant comfort to his family.
