A Facebook Post

I was just distracted by a Facebook post of a friend, about the passing of a beautiful and talented young man and his friend. I don't know but it seemed to bother me, so I browsed his(the late young man's) fb page and the moment I was in there it was filled with countless honoring, sympathy and sorrow.

Wow, how did this person live his whole life it touches me within, he was only 22 yrs young for heaven's sake and yet thousands and even more people are now crying and mourning for his loss. He's definitely not a celebrity but in the lives of people whom this person was able to demonstrate the true beauty of a man's heart, he's more than just a celebrity. He was a well known walking joy, strength, hope and inspiration.

Forgive me if I was really truly intrigued to see what kind of person he really is. Thank you for the posts he made public, and to tell you the truth I envied this person it was a surprise what he stated the moment he learned about his disease, that moment when the Doctor diagnosed him with leukemia, he said he felt that the time he was healthy was such a blessing and now that he's sick it was an eye-opener, he was so thankful and he declares how much he loves the Lord despite the news. He feels that the Lord's love never left, His embrace becoming tighter and he want to thank the Lord every moment he spent with the people he loves.

Yes, he's just an ordinary young man of his age.
But,
He has the spirit of a strong young man who never gives up life easily and at the same time he knows when to accept defeat and face the truth.
He has made many people smile, and he was admired for his hard work and dedication and even made the people savor his God-given-talent.(He was a great dancer)
This young man must be so at peace and very much fulfilled in his place now.
A life full of compassion.
A life with a lot of struggles and yet filled with gratitude.
A man with beauty and honor.
I pray now for his soul and wherever he is now, I thank him for he inspires a lot of people including me even though his life on earth has just ended.
I personally have not seen this man in real, I haven't talked to him, but I know for sure that his life will continue to be an inspiration to other individuals he crossed roads with.
This is such a unique encounter I've had.
I wish to live my life like he did, be an inspiration to many like he was.

How about us? how do we live our God-given life?
