Today I listened to a song by Ginuwine, "Two Reasons I Cry". This is a song about how he felt after he lost both his mother and father died. They are gone forever. Its very difficult for me to deal with death. By ignoring it and suppressingthe emotions I have inside its hard to understand and to even fathom the different people that I could lose if God calls them.
I was awaken today by a text message from my friend who alerted me of the passing of my professor. I was stunned. I still cannot believe it. I'm not exactly sure when it will hit me or if it has and I'm over it and I have have learned how to deal but either way I have to realize like the others that I have loved that have gone before her, she is gone. She will nto be back. She will never be able to make jokes about "benonce" as she calls her or even talk some sense into these girls here. I have learned aendless things from Professor Hunley, from what to wear to how to properly write a partner letter and the tradition of concubines. She will truly be missed.
Her death has inspired me to live my life to the fullest. Although I pray I have many years ahead of me, the truth is that its up to GOD. I cannot determine when I die but I can try and live healthy and honest to myself and those around me, that love me. I cannot stress over small things, or even worry what others have to say, because at the end of the day, If you love yourself others will love you and when it is your time you will be missed. Kindness and honesty is the characteristics of a happy person.
I believe that Professor Wanda C. Hunley was happy. Although she didnt have a husband, children and had lost her parents she was able to love herself and now she is able to rest peacefully with the family she had lost.
This tragedy has given me a new outlook. I cherish the family and friends that I do have with me and those who are gone I miss but one thing I know is that by making every moment I spend here on earth a memroable one I will truly be happy, as Professor WCH was.
R.I.P. Professor
