A WAILER SITTING ON A TOMB STONE

Kenneth Nkemnacho

As we celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, I feel that I should
put something on paper that may not necessarily be religious but draws its
inspiration from the only Holy Book I know; The Bible. Scrolling through the
pages of divine inspiration, one can see that life goes beyond the irritability of
the human skin; it is spiritual before being physical. Physicality has a dimension
controlled from the inner portraits of existence. Therefore, a portrait of inner
peace is a reflection of physical calm. When the heart is still, the body will
definitely be still. Stillness comes with no impurities. Stillness comes with no
aspersions. Stillness comes with sincerity of heart and purpose.

I agree that I have a repertoire of historical background, but from this

acrimony, I am able to draw strength and believe that everyone can be a
winner if everyone turns clay into pots. Life is a potter. Life makes and shapes, if
we submit to its art gallery. The Man at the gallery has the fingers of creativity;
He fashions, fathoms, and functions. The functionality of the invincible is the
courage we have to dare walk the stages with grace even in faze. Are you
disconcerted? Are you mourning? Dry your tears because a being came like a
lightening to take off the stone from the Saviour’s tomb. I can’t be in the grave
because I saw a wailer sitting on the tomb stone.
