Sam Mtukudzi Dies: A Life Well Lived?
Sam Mtukudzi, the son of highly accomplished African musician, Oliver Mtukudzi, has died in a tragic car crash early hours of this morning. He was just 21. His parents who are in South Africa are due to arrive sometime this morning to begin funeral arrangements.
It’s always a terrible shock when a young person, especially one so talented passes away. We think of the terrible waste – all that he was yet to do, never will be done. Songs never sung, dances never danced.
In Sam Mtukudzi’s case, we think also of all he had already accomplished. The smiles and laughter he inspired. The example of his life to young and old.
But whatever the lesson of his life, there is a strong one also in his passing… Live Your Life Today. Don’t procrastinate your happiness. When you delay your dreams, you have less time to enjoy them.
So mend that broken relationship, start that business, try that idea, pray that prayer. Not because of fear of death, but out of respect for time.
Whether you live your dreams for 5 years or 50, it always seems short at the end. Best get going, don’t you think? A life well lived is a life that is actually lived. Aren’t you tired simply existing? Your creator, your loved ones and the whole world, we’re all waiting to see what’s inside you, to hear the music in you.
