Saturday afternoon a friend of my died in the boys locker room at my school at baseball conditioning. No one knows why yet, he was just found on the floor, not breathing. It's been tearing me up inside, along with the rest of our school. (R.I.P. Joe) I haven't fully registered it yet, and I haven't really all-out bawled...but when I see his body at the viewing, I know I will...
Have you ever had a friend die? How did you take it? |

This girl I was friends with in elementary school (we went to different middle schools) died during my/our eigth grade year. She was trying to save her mentally handicapped sister who was trapped in the house (the sister died too). When I found out, I was bawling. After I stopped, I pretty much went through the entire day thisclose to tears. I mean it's sad when people die, but even sadder when a child dies. It's like a bright future all of a sudden dissappearing.
My condolences to you, your school, and Joe's family. |

He was so dedicated. He once wrote an essay for english, which he was forced to read, and he basically mapped out his plan to achieve his goal. I think about him and how his dream was cut short, and it breaks my heart. He was such a good guy. You never think it can happen to you, or someone you know, and now that it's happened to him... ...damnit, he didn't deserve it. This is the kind of thing that makes you question your faith. Even doing so, I prayed for him this morning. |
