What is the sentence that changed your life?

A Hero never dies. Any one in this world can be a hero if he wants to be.

This was the sentence of my late cousin, which completely change my life after his death.

      

Let me explain it further..

It was a Monday morning, I was just ready to go to college when a person entered and said

…………..Your cousin died due to heart attack………………

This was not a sentence ..it was just like a bad omen. Everyone was shocked because he was a well settled 25 years old healthy person… So we canceled our daily routine plans and gathered at my aunt home.I remember when I entered at her home I heard many sentences like.

• A lady said, ‘He was so young, a young architecture .. May his soul rest in peace’.
• A child said, ‘He was the only friend of mine’.
• His brother raised a question, ‘He was my teacher and mentor why he died??’
• His colleague said, ‘He was our team leader, a jolly and well-spoken person, May God accept all of his good deeds’.

At that time I also raised a question. I asked God why he?? why only he?? He was my brother..He was my supporter. He was the best person in the whole family.. why he died?? I don’t know when tears fell from my eyes.I remember I remained in that situation for more than 1 hour. But with the passage of time, I realized that his death taught me a lesson, a lesson which he was unable to teach me when he was alive….A lesson that.

Those who do good deeds, they never die. Their name always remains alive in the heart and memories of the other people.

When I realized it I start helping others because I want to be just like him. He is alive in my heart and I want to be alive in others hearts.. :)

So after 4 years ..I am able to explain the real meaning of his sentence.. :)
