At 62 years of age, Eka Darmaputera had to give in to his failing kidney and liver and moved on to a better place. Death approached slowly; creeping in like a silent thief but embraced with whole heartedness and total surrender. He was on his death bed, feeling every pain but his mouth muttered a low ,"I love you" when I said goodbye.

That is faith. That is courage.

Eka lived to work become a blessing for others, in every way possible . What touched me the most was the numerous evidence of the lives he touched whilst living. He made it all worth while.

I sit here and think to myself. Have I become a blessing? What kind of meaning do I have in my life?
