In memory of Afridza Munandar.
The pain of someone dying is difficult, particularly if it is a loved one. It doesn’t actually get better with time with the grief. Yet, the emotions that arise are easier to cope with and to manage. However, the pain is indescribable for the parents who lost a child. They are not suicidal thoughts, but these thoughts are looking for re-connection.

Conclusion
We know that, here we are all expected to die. Death is a very traumatic occurrence that must be endured by everyone. Here is a quote which is specially dedicated to Afridza Munandar who lost his life at a very young age:
‘He zip up his jacket and slide his gloves on. His helmet fits perfectly over his head. He starts his bike and the distinct sound of his Energica Ego Corsa motorbike triggers a rush of memories. He mount up and pay close attention to the mechanics of the bike as he press into first gear. He let out the clutch and as he pulls out of the driveway he enters the last moments of his life. The wind rushes past him and he rides by his final earthly destination’.
