Ricky Lim is a writer, writing in all genres. He has authored two books - A Month to Know My Dad (Memoirs); The Soul From Heaven & Hell (Fiction). The Sleepless Coffin (Horror & Thrilling) is his third book.
The Sleepless Coffin espouses the fact that humans never accept the truth.
Although we witness a truthful event we choose to believe in something we feel comfortable with and one that favours us. This is ignorance. The longer we stay in this ignorant stage, the longer we will be in a static position, dreaming in a coffin with a lid closed and nailed. Once the coffin is nailed and buried, we will be forever forgotten by the world and lose out on the essence of being human.
Similarly, if we are lost and directionless, we are easily misled by devils, and eventually, fall into their trap. Remember, to defeat the devil within you, the only way is to accept and embrace the truth.
