Phil 1:21(NIV) For to me,to live is Christ and to die is gain.. (NLT) For to me living means living for Christ and dying is even better. Hmmmm. Brethren, another opportunity for reflection and cross examination of conscience.Life is too short to live in unhappiness,wickedness,hatred,malice... Ademola, be rest assured your Mom is resting in the bossom of the Lord. Adieu!
The Lord that giveth hath taketh..

I’m unable to understand why this wound won’t heal, why every year almost a decade gone i still find myself hurt and in deep painful grief over my loss, heavens gain. Why tears still roll down my cheeks and I’m unable to smile in sweet reminiscence at the thought of you.
Why as the days go by, I think more on my inadequacy and what I could have done differently, done better.
As a younger man, I never understood why she sought out BRECAN,she only asked me to take her… i wondered if mysery loved company so much that she needed to be in the midst of persons with cancer.
Today I see she was tired, I drove around my exhausted mother, who needed soo much strength to fight a battle she had lost,she found no strength in me, and for some reason I judge myself to weak to provide succor to the woman I love most in my life in the moment she needed me.

My heart broke when I heard about the demise of one of the most adorable and charismatic in-law, I was in shock. I remembered the charming smile on your face at mama waa's funeral some months ago. Anyway, God knows the purpose for allowing this to happen. The many lives touched, configured and re-shaped by your influence and impact will forever remember you and your goodness. I could remember when I was in government college Ibadan, I really felt your influence in my life. Then I would call her mummy bobo, her hospitality was 200%, she was caring and accommodating. I remember a phrase I used to say then, "thank God she's part of Oyewole's family". Ma, you will forever be loved, ADIEU Mummy bobo. Rest by the right hand of the Almighty. May God's grace will be in abundance for the family you left to attain the greatness you hoped for them.

We love you, but God loves you more.
