Let me share a touching experience I had today being Sunday 31st May 2026.
The thoughts of a guy I knew few years ago came to mind so I decided to reach out just to check up on him but all to no avail, then I left a message on WhatsApp and also visit Facebook I haven't checked for a very long-time in a bid to search for him.
When I logged in successfully, the thoughts of an old time schoolmate just came to mind and I left the first person to search for this schoolmate I haven't spoken with or seen online in years and still couldn't find any recent post on his Facebook page other than a birthday wish dated 10th October 2025 from a lady to him and they both bear same surname and from same state of origin.
So I presumed she could be one of his sisters he talked about while we were in school many years ago.
I sent her a message in a bid to get his number and while scrolling her posts, I discovered series of obituaries including their mum, younger brother, and uncle that passed on consecutively in year 2025 alone.
At this point, it occurred to me that my old time schoolmate has been going through a challenging phase and would need a lot of encouragement to stay strong.
Lesson:- You probably could be that one last voice someone need to hear to keep hope alive.
