Thinking about this, I realize how important it is for us to look out for each other, speak up against unfairness, and ensure everyone is treated equally and kindly.
It's like a reminder that we must live in a way that respects others, following the wise teachings of Guru Nanak.
Seize the moment
The present we didn't value.
The only times when we keep pondering,
On our sad past and tense future.
Forgetting those precious pearls-
That is in our hands now and will not be forever.
For now, we all beg for our past -
And some reminisce about it and some cry over it,
As if it could have been changed just by blaming.
Then comes our future as if there is a portal to it,
You overthink and spend that time-
that's continuously moving out of your hand.
So why not do something more useful,
Build memories that are as sweet as honey,
To be worth cherished and to be looked back.
The precious souvenir of every perfect time with your-
Loved one or the deeds that make people happy,
And most of all that makes you, yourself merry.
It is better than living a life where people are always-
Remising about decisions that they were influenced about.
Live the present as if it is the last day to be spent
Because life is all about having no repent!

Losing someone you love is tough. It hurts, and you feel sad, confused, and lost. Whether it's a family member, friend, or even a pet, the pain is real. Let's talk about how people feel and cope when someone they love dies.
At first, it's a big shock. You might feel like everything is falling apart, and it's hard to believe it's real. You might feel numb or not really there.
Then, anger can kick in. You might feel mad at the world, yourself, or even the person who died. You might wonder why it happened and wish things were different. It's confusing because there are lots of mixed-up feelings.
Next, there's bargaining. You might try to make deals with yourself or with a higher power to change what happened. You might feel guilty or wish you could turn back time. But deep down, you know things can't go back to how they were.
Depression can hit hard. You realize the person you love is really gone, and life feels empty. Things that used to make you happy don't anymore. It's okay to feel sad and ask for help during this time.
Finally, there's acceptance. It's when you start to find peace with what happened. You know the pain won't go away completely, but you can still live your life. You find ways to remember and honor the person you lost.
Everyone copes with loss differently. But talking to friends, family, or a therapist can help you feel less alone. Doing things that make you feel good, like exercising or being creative, can also help. And finding ways to remember the person you love, like through rituals or acts of kindness, can bring comfort.
Losing someone you love is really tough, but with support and self-care, you can get through it. It's okay to feel sad, and healing takes time. Remember, you're not alone, and there's hope for brighter days ahead.
