I THINK I WAS UNFAIR TO MY HUSBAND.

Hello Ma,

My name is Bose (not her real name). I think I was unfair to my husband. I denied him listening to his classical music before he died. My husband was very sick and we took him to different hospitals across Nigeria. I was a born again Christian and I took him to church and he joined me in switching from Anglican to Pentecostal church. He also became born again. A few weeks before he died, he requested that I should play one of his old favorites, a Sunny Ade song. I blatantly refused and  told him that he will not listen to any worldly music in our house except gospel music. I feel so guilty these days because I denied him his only request. I was acting “holier-than-thou” and now I occasionally listen to the same secular music I denied my husband. My heart aches as I remember my wickedness. This should be a lesson to others not to play “holier-than-thou”.‎
