I hate to say this, but death is becoming a common place thing for people around me it seems like. I just can’t get a break. Someone I knew when I was much younger passed away. I dont know how it happened. Someone much younger than me. I have lost quite a few childhood friends now. I know it will get much worse. It doesn’t get easier and probably never will. I pray to God it never does. As with all people I know, I have my way of saying goodbye.

“My heart has joined the Thousand, for my friend stopped running today.”

Rest in peace dear friend. Be at peace.
