Nico & Vinz Send Off

I hope I live a long, fulfilling life.

I hope all of us do.

I hope none of us ever die young.

But if — when — my time eventually comes, I would want my funeral not to be a place of sorrow alone, but also of celebration, defiance, and hope.

In that spirit, there’s only one song I would want echoing through the hall:

"Am I Wrong" by Nico & Vinz.

The Song That Carried Me

"Am I wrong for thinking out the box from where I stay?"

"Am I wrong for saying that I'll choose another way?"

"I ain't tryna do what everybody else doing."

These lyrics have been the quiet anthem of my life.

From the very beginning, I have always tried to reach for things that others said were out of reach — the dreams you can't quite see, the heights you can't yet touch.
There were times it felt impossible.
There were times it felt lonely.
There were times it felt foolish.

But that song reminded me:
It’s not wrong to dream differently.
It’s not wrong to believe there’s more waiting beyond the visible horizon.
It’s not wrong to want a life bigger than the blueprint handed to you.

All My Life: Reaching for the Things I Can't See

"All my life, I’ve been trying to reach the things I can't see."

That line strikes at the very core of who I am.
I have never been content with what is simply handed to me.
I have chased ambition even when it was blurry and distant.

I have fought to be the best I can be — not because anyone demanded it, but because somewhere deep inside me, I knew that life must be more than surviving.
Life must be about becoming. To me, "Am I Wrong" isn't just a pop song.

It’s a philosophy.
It’s a manifesto.
It’s a promise that it's okay to try, to fail, to hope, to hurt, and to rise — again and again.

Why A Send-Off with Nico & Vinz Matters

When that inevitable day comes — I don’t want my funeral to be only about mourning.

I want it to be a reminder:

That life is about reaching for what you cannot yet see.

That it's noble to be misunderstood if you're following your truth.

That even if you don't get there, the journey mattered.

I want my final gift to the people I love to be the message that carried me my whole life:

It’s okay to dream different dreams.

It’s okay to live a bigger story.

It’s okay to aim for impossible things.

When "Am I Wrong" plays, I hope people don't cry for what’s lost — I hope they smile for what was dared.

In The End

I hope I live a long, adventurous, messy, meaningful life.

I hope none of us ever die young.

I hope we all get to chase the things we can’t yet see.

And when it’s finally time to rest,



I hope my final send-off is set to the voices of two Norwegian-Ghanaian artists, who once reminded the world — and me — that the greatest thing you can do is choose another way. "If one thing I know, I'll fall but I'll grow..."

"...I'm walking down this road of mine, this road that I call home."

Hope we all live long
