Every soul will taste death

 

"Time of death, 1132H"

60mins of resuscitation, feeling the adrenaline rush through my veins together with ampules of adrenaline given to patient, few shocks delivered, still no pulse palpable. 

As my breathing pace quickens, I push myself harder against patient's chest, hoping that she'll come back. Cycles of CPR commenced, when I finally realize, this body is no longer breathing lay final rest.

Minutes earlier, you were talking and laughing with your patient. A minute later, she died, and you have no power against it. 

There is something about death that brings life into sharper focus. We spend so much of our energy just getting through each day that its easy to forget that our time on earth is finite. That our life is so fragile, that it will be taken away anytime.

One thing for sure, death doesn't knock on the door. What have we prepared for our Akhirah?
