The sudden death of my family made me understand that in fact, life and death are in an instant, and I want to live in the moment
My eldest brother and third sister-in-law left in a hurry, and they failed to say goodbye to everyone, leaving only a few words, and then left quietly, like autumn leaves drifting away in an instant.
If my eldest brother is still alive, he would only be 71 years old now, because I know that he is a dragon, a year older than me. I am 58 years old, and my eldest brother lived such a short life, he died in a dream when he was 57 years old.
The eldest brother, who has always been optimistic, planned to play cards with everyone the next day during the day, but the next morning, the eldest brother never woke up.
This was a heavy blow not only to the family but also to the neighbors, who were depressed during that time and felt that life had lost its meaning, as the saying goes, if you take off your shoes at night, you don't know if you will be able to put them on tomorrow morning.
It was the morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year more than ten years ago, and the eldest brother, who has always been hardworking, prepared breakfast for his sister-in-law every day. But that morning, just after dawn, the sister-in-law woke up and found that the eldest brother was still asleep, and wondered, why didn't the eldest brother get up to cook so late? She gently pushed her eldest brother, but found that the eldest brother had long since lost his breath and quietly left ......
The daughters of the third year of junior high school went home to greet their parents for the New Year, so on the night of the fourth day of junior high school, the eldest brother also played cards with the children, and the noisy and noisy until late at night, and the grandchildren were sleepy, which was the end. The sister-in-law said that when she was sleeping, she saw her eldest brother eating with a pot of apples, but who knew that the eldest brother would die the next morning.
According to the sister-in-law, in the autumn of the eldest brother's death, every morning he would use a flashlight and accompany his sister-in-law to Dahetao to pull sand to make money.
However, the eldest brother explained that this is a seasonal job, and if he doesn't do it this year, he will have to wait until the fall of the next year.
On Chinese New Year's Eve that year, the eldest brother bought a lot of firecrackers and brought back a big fireworks, and while lighting them, he excitedly said like a child that this big fireworks were so beautiful that he must buy more next year.
It's a pity that in the life of the eldest brother, there is no autumn and Spring Festival ......
The third sister-in-law passed away silently on the last day of the first month of the 60-year-old natal year that she was most afraid of.
Throughout her life, she had an extreme fear of death, and in her youth she was superstitious about fortune-telling and hiding from bad luck. A fortune teller once told her that one day at the age of 48 she would die in a car accident.
This prophecy frightened the third sister-in-law, and she specially invited her mother to her home for a whole day, and she was not relieved until the clock struck midnight.
I remember that on the fifteenth day of the first month of the year when my third sister-in-law died, we still spent time together at my old mother's house and played cards together. The third sister-in-law asked her sister-in-law, who was a year older than her, how her life was going in her natal year.
The sister-in-law replied that her natal year was going very smoothly, no different from usual, and advised the third sister-in-law not to think too much about it and go with the flow.
However, what is surprising is that in just half a month, that is, on the last day of the first month, the third sister-in-law suddenly felt a headache when she was about to fall asleep, and suddenly fell to the ground before she could shout. Five hours later, she left us forever with a cerebral hemorrhage.
The third sister-in-law silently left on the last day of the first month of her natal year, which she feared the most.
Recalling that the young eldest brother and third sister-in-law left suddenly like this, although I had already accepted it, life and death were like a dream, as said in the sketch, close your eyes and open them again, and the day will pass; Close your eyes and never open them again, and your life will be over.
So, what else do we have to be reluctant and entangled? Except for being alive, everything else is a cloud of smoke. Live well and cherish every moment of the moment, because life and death are really only in a moment.
