#Steemgigs (Life) : THE REASON I CRY!!

It hurts me a lot when I see young people die. People who are yet to fulfill their callings. People who are yet to accomplish their dreams and aspirations. It pains a lot and sometimes, I can't help myself but cry.

Talking of the parents of these young ones. Their tears seem to know no bound. Many of them have invested so much in the lives of their kids hoping to get rewarded for their labour. But boom! The child dies. All their efforts, money and investment goes down the drain. It is really a great and big loss to parents who lose their kids at a very tender age.

They bury their children when their children were supposed to bury them. It is a thing of tears. I really do feel for them. I hope this does not happen any more.

Today, I'll be sharing with you guys some painful losses I have heard of which made me shed tears.

The most recent one is concerning this young lady .LATE EMEDIONG AQWAOWO.

She was currently a 4th year undergraduate studying Mechanical Engineering in the University of Uyo. A very calm and easy-going young lady. We had left school to start our industrial training but all of a sudden, I saw pictures of her all over the social media with 'R.I.P' messages.

I was so down and grieved. I looked back at the stress she'd gone through to be where she was. At least, she deserved eat the fruit of her labour. Her parents must have expected her to come and be a blessing to them. She must of had dreams and aspirations. But too bad, she's gone and we can't change that.

Another is about a young graduate in my department in the university. His name is Ukeme; sorry his photo is not handy. He was a First Class student. He had just graduated and left for NYSC but one week into his stay there, we got a report that he was dead. His dead body was sent to his parents. What a tragedy!!

Why didn't he die at his nursery level?

Why did he have to die at the verge of his breakthrough?
After all the effort and money he put in?
