End of an Era!!

said my relative.. I call him Dada.. he is my cousin sis's hubby.. last weekend he cremated his Dad who succumbed to strokes during a dialysis session.. and this is what he said.. End of an era!!
I was touched when he said that .. yet it is the truth.. you live your whole life thinking and knowing what you believe is true or right .. your lifestyle, your family, your friends, your profession, your colleagues, your neighbors.. your grocer, everything around you pretty much, know you for what you are and then one fine day, u r 'no more'.. maybe u wont have anyone to carry forward your legacy.. oftentimes its a weird feeling that 'one instance when u go from living to dead'.. that instantaneous turn of events.. even saying it makes it something heavy-weight that every single one of us need to bear.. which brings me to the saying - 'life is all about living'.. its impossible to turn back time hence all we can do is move forward.. am sure each one of us do that finally, with everything said and done..
