Life Is An Overly Ripened Pawpaw (Rest In Peace NoMoreLoss)

What's this life really? Today one is hale and hearty and the next day, one's picture is flooding DPs and TLs with RIP messages. I was all ready to give my 2 cents on this paedophilia issue resting on Queen's College when I heard the very heart wrenching news of NoMoreLoss' demise.
I did not exactly know him personally except for the fact that we followed each other on Twitter but I do know enough to boldly say he was a fairly decent man. He always had uplifting words on his timeline. Yeah I know you'll be like "errrm duhhh, how does that make him decent?" but believe me, sometimes, I am blessed with the ability to see,sniff and filter BS from afar. His style of music also spoke volumes about his character.
For those of you who do not understand my post title, here goes. Pawpaw fruits are quite beautiful on the tree. first coming out as tiny nipples, then grow into huge breast like fruits. First they are green, then they begin to ripen over time. Most of the time, the fruits are plucked before they are fully ripened. Other times, they just keep ripening on the tree and then one random day, it just falls and splatters all over the ground...Unsalvageable.
I pray God grants his family and loved ones the fortitude and solace to bear this huge loss. Only 2 things give me succour with regards to this issue. The fact that I believe that he is in a better place where death can't do nada, and the fact that he has been made immortal through the beautiful music that he left with us. Talk about leaving a place better than you met it. Sigh...
Anyway people, there you have it. You and I are not promised tomorrow so rid yourself of anything or anybody that will make life hard instead of enjoyable for you. Live in a way that if you were to wake up for just a minute in the casket, you will smile and sleep back. Okay I don't even know if that makes any sense but you get my drift. The Lord help us all.
Adieu Olumuyiwa Osinuga NoMoreLoss. Adieu...
