Well yesterday we got very heavy rains. The weather was pleasant. Yet there were some sad news recently.
One is the demise of firmer external affairs Minister of India Sushma Swaraj- a gracious and soft spoken yet a tough and efficiently lady.
She died due to heart attack. Her demise is a big loss for the whole country. People, even her opponents remember her for her tenure as the external affairs Minister.
Secondly one of my cousins died recently. He was just two years older to me.
He had a tough life. He once fell from a roof and got injuries and kidney problem when he was around 20.
He was on a constant dialysis. He was not in good health.
Yet he had a remarkable resilience. He was always cheerful. He was also very aware of things around. He could not marry probably thinking that raising a family would be tough in his conditions.
He succumbed recently to multiple health issues. I feel sad for him. It would be very tough for his old parents.
I am not even able to console his death.
What do I say?
May God give rest to his soul and please god do not give such a life to anyone.

Sorry to know about your cousin. He had a challenging life but seems to be a cheerful guy. May his soul rest in peace. Prayers for ageing parents. No words are good enough to console them.
As for Sushma Swaraaj, it's a big loss to politics. A tall leader and a wonderful orator is gone forever. But she has left her mark and will be fondly remembered by Nation. May her soul rest in peace.

@arunima25 yes sometimes life can be very tough. Yet I would always remember him for what he was.
And yes Sushma Swaraj was a great leader who was respected both nationally and internationally.

@LadyDuck Yes I would go to visit them perhaps a little later, but frankly I cannot express much.

Yes the parents endured his sickness all these years but seeing someone dying is not at all tolerable.
