Yes, your cousin is right.. he’s in a good place. By the way when i read your story I feel a calm breeze with dry cedar, incense, ginger, aromatic woody scent..
I still rmb the day he passed.. entire immediate family was around his bedside. My family lives all over the world. Since young, we each choose different countries to live. Even my father who worked in Dubai and Qatar for a decade. So it was rare that everyone was around. Including our grandparents who had no idea he was that sick.
He was taking his last breathes and we were playing his fav Elton John soundtrack. Then my grandfather told my dad not to hold on anymore and go. He listened and took one final breathe then stopped.
It was so calm. He showed us that there is nothing to be afraid of about death. You will get to pick the time to take your last breathe.
Ever since that moment, i have no issues about death. Sure, it will suck to die early but death is death. There's nothing that can be done. All that can be done now is to ensure my children grow up with a fatherly figure and a secured enough future, but not so easy that they get too comfortable with life.
Struggle in life is necessary to build resistance in times of trouble.
