Some depart from this realm, leaving their scent cushioned in every corner they had once been; it sneaks upon us teeming with memories of hope and dream.
Nearly a month after Issam Breidy bid us farewell, his bereaved family and the actors syndicate decided to commemorate his memory by organizing “Darb al Sama” march to raise their prayers and revive their faith in internal life.
Friends and family will gather at Platea theater in Jounieh. They would then all march to the Lady of Lebanon Basilica in Harissa where they will attend a ceremonial mass at 8pm.
“We will march ahead despite all obstacles,” Wissam Breidy told MTV.
The march will set off on the rhythm of chants and collective prayers for the spirit of the Issam and lost loved ones.
“This visit will bear the fruits of hope of faith to all ailing hearts ,” Wissam said.
Issam’s breidy’s memory is redolent with honesty and faith, this is exactly how Wissam remembers his brother daily on social media. The strength his memory betrays is the motive that keeps kicking in Issam's very being to resume his life and return to “Dancing with the Stars.”
“I hit some steep moments of loneliness, weakness and struggle with God but then I pulled myself up and gave in to God’s will,” Wissam said, calling on all those who fear the end to place their fate in the hands of the lord.
“The human spirit on earth is as fleeting as the hours and is constantly in a transitional form to consummate the afterlife; we are forever climbing that mountain and Issam was one of the first to reach the summit,” he explained, contemplating the enormous love all of issam’s acquaintances had shared, and the celestial homecoming he has surely received from the angels above.
Wissam said that he sees people as a tool of God; he prays before his every appearance on TV that he would be the channel through which God's word is transmitted to all.
He attests, in filial devotion, that his creator had claimed his brother so that he would rest knowing that “Issam is in my heart; he is always with me.”
