HEADLINE: Man's coffin kills wife on way to cemetery
When I saw this clickable headline, I felt I had to read this story, it seemed there was so much that lie within this short news article.
As we all know, no matter who we are, where we live, or what our name is, we all will have our end one day, and this is not to make a point of sorrow or to cry wolf about how everybody dies, but to bring fourth ideas of how people live and what they live for. While reading this article you learn that this married couple had lived in Brazil, presumably for their entire life, you could say that they had simple lives just like most other people of the world, work, support your family ect, and while not much information, you could assume much of their life. You could also say that they have been married for a long time, and were truely in love with eachother.
Roughly 5 years ago my elder neighbors passed away, I had known them ever since I can remember. The woman passed of pancreatic cancer, and within two weeks of that, the man passed. You never saw him after his wifes death, his family did, but the neighborhood rarely saw him. He wasnt sick, we know he couldnt eat, he couldnt sleep, and after his death, we all believe he had passed of a broken heart. He wasnt himslef after her death, I did see him once, he looked lifeless, he sat in a wheel chair, a sight i had never seen as he was a stong old man who kept up with the housework. His tone was as lifeless as his body, he barely made eye contact with me, he was weak, almost dead.
As you can see, and whether you believe in destiny or not, i believe it was thier destiny, whether it was chosen by him, or by something else, to live eternally in life, and after. Now this is a broad statement, but after I read this article I immediatly thought of my neighbors. It may be true that it was the mans own will that allowed him to die, but in this artcle the anonymous woman had no will for that, there was an accident, the coffin slammed into her, and she died, Now you could believe that it was they're destiny, or you could believe that this was just a freak accident, crazier things have happend.
