This last month has been a bit trying. I knew 4 people, each affecting my world differently, that died. My heart aches for those families who no longer have their loved ones.
For me, it rocks me to my core and reminds me how swiftly any life can come to an end. Mine own included. I'm definitely a person who understand how quickly it can happen but even I tend to get into the mundane of living just to live.
While visiting the final resting place for many; I walk past a tombstone of a girl, a girl who was 17 when she died. That could have been me. A cold hard piece of granite, the last reminder of her existence. I feel for her family. I'm thankful for mine.
Right now, the sun is shinning and the whole world is waiting for me. I'm going to do what I do everyday and remember that this is my world and I am alive!
