30 day challenge...day 2.

Day 2--Your thoughts on death.

Well, personally, death has become a huge part of my life.  Yes, that sounds weird, but at my job I am literally surrounded by it.  I have realized how heavy grief is.  I have seen grown men get choked up about their wives who have passed away.  I have see anger in grief.  I have seen a lot it seems.  Yet still, I haven't lost anyone close to me.  And I hope it stays that way for a long time.


When I was in 4th grade my very best friend's dad passed away in a car accident.  I went to the wake.  I remember it so so vividly.  I hugged her mom, while she cried.  It was life changing not only for them, but also for me.  I wrote her a note telling her I would always be there for her.  She is quite possibly one of the most driven, and smartest woman I know.  I like to think her dad is looking down on her.

Death is hard.  Even thinking about death is hard.  All I can do is tell those who mean the most to me how much I love them.  Don't hold grudges, and always live in the moment.  Life is sooooo short when you really look at the big picture.  Why waste a single second of it?

Day 2 quote--a quote about love

A hundred hearts would be too few

To carry all my love for you.
