Since the beginning of Time, human have
always been privileged to have among them, a fellowman that rises to champion
a cause that improves lives of other humans. In this line, came a spiritual
deity who goes by earthly name of “Robert Nesta Marley”. And on this day 35
years ago, at the completion of his celestial assignments, he transitioned to
join our ancestors.
He was a humbled Prophet, a visionary,
a mystical crier, a defender of faith, and a symbol of hope whose life-verses
encourages humanity to unfetter from irrelevant, and to major more in positive ideas and
unity. And by example, his passion was not for earthly material, but his
diplomatic mission to unite humanity was his main focus. And within his reach
in his homeland, the hungry were feed, and some earned their livelihood through
his direct effort, doing so, while healing the entire civilized world with
verses of wisdom.
It was 35 years ago today that you
left us, yet our hearts still feels pain. The comforts to our souls however,
are the timeless verses of redemption, created for our spiritual uses for which
we are grateful to you always.
Mr. Marley, if I may step into your
comfort zone, (in your honor,) to recite the Rastafarian spiritual chant: “Jah
Ras Tafari, Ever living! Ever faithful, SELASSIE-I LIVE, SELASSIE-I LIVE,
SELASSIE-I LIVE!”
And, as for the “natural mystic”
currently blowing through the air in your beloved Africa, (and somewhere else
in the World), I believe in your doctrine, we will worry not about a thing, for
TIME will bring us a better day; when then, the children will “weep no
more”.
Sleep well, my Lord.
