2008 (go back »)

 2008 is shaping up to be not a very good year. So many young people have been passing away.

New years day my friend Jesse died of an overdoes at 21, the day before that my friends dad passed away suddenly in his sleep and just last week a good friend that was only 17 died after she was drinking and driving which ended in her flipping over her jeep. I just don't understand how the ones who have so much going on for themselves.

I know that in some point in everyone's life they ask for a death wish but dont get it granted. While others who seem to be on top of th world seem to die with so much unfinished business.

Jesse was a true nd kind person and the warmest person i have ever met. His brother is a triple amputy who lost both legs and his left arm to a train accident close to 7 years ago. Jesse was a little bit of a risk taker but nobody saw this coming. He was 30 shy of 22 birthday that he shared with his twin brother. Those two where insperable and now after jesse's death it seems as though we all have lost both of them.

Death is a hard thing to overcome but i have overcome it many times, my father, both of grandpas, and numerous amounts of friends. I think its one of those things that makes you realize how fragile life is. My experiences have made me confrontable with death, the only thing i worry about is how i will go out.

Your probably wonder how and why would a 20 year old be thing of death. Well all i can say to that is Death s a part of life folk. You live and you die end of story. i know that might sound harsh but its the truth.
