عبدالله بن عباد

The phrase: “I’m tired” reminds me of my father.

He never said I’m tired. And I remember him every day when I come home, when I feel a bit tired of course after a long busy day as usual.

Strange, he never said I’m tired, why would this phrase remind me of him?

He used to work hard, every day of his life, never took a day off, from early morning till he sleeps, 7 days a week.

For him, time was never enough. His commitments and plans were bigger than life. Strangely, he never said “I’m tired”.

One day, and one time only he told me “Abdallah, I’m tired”. I remember it! I was so stupid, and ignorant because I never understood it.

He died the very next day.

God bless him.
