Rest In Peace
Its hard for me to fathom certain things in life.
Death...for example. Not just death in general... because ten out of ten people die... I know that. But what about when it comes to people who never had much of a chance in life to begin with? What about when it comes to taking away the innocence of youg children? a 16 year old boy whose body was so stricken with cancer he just couldn't hold on any longer? How fair is that? Its not. There is no way around it.
I heard the news this morning, through a text message. It hasn't really hit me yet, I dont think. But as I sit here and write I begin to wonder why? WHY did you have to take a 16 year old boy?!?! After all the horrible things so many other people in this world have done, why did it have to be Houston? He should have taken me instead. I would have given up my life for him to live. Its just not ok. Its not ok....
I dont even know where or how to pull my thoughts together right now. I dont think I will ever be able to grasp the fact that things like this just happen. "sometimes things like this happen". Yea?!?! Well they shouldn't. Its just as simple as that.
Things like this may happen all the time, but it doesn't make it any less devastating.
May we all learn from your short life. Tell God I said Hi, and that I am mad at him right now.
I know that you are no longer in pain, and you are dancing with the angels of heaven as I write this. Atleast we have that much to hold on to.

I know this is a sad thing, but don't ever think, that it's you who should of died. You have more to offer. Just because a person is bad or did bad things, doesn't mean that they deserve death. God has mercy on all of us.
*Hugs* It really does hurt when a young person dies. One of the children that I used to babysit all the time when I was younger passed away pretty suddenly last year. He was only 11. I know how you feel.
I'm so sorry. (Hugs)
it's hard
nothing said will make you feel better for now
you just have to walk it out...
*hugs*
It really isn't fair. I can't imagine myself dealing with something like that and it looks like he was a positive person. People like that are heroic in my opinion. Pete
I'm sorry for your loss. God's ways are so hard to understand, huh. Hope you are comforted by knowing your friend is no longer suffering.
I hope my words do not sound empty or cliche, but I am truly sorry for your loss. It always hurts when a life is cut short.
I ask alot of "whys" too...it sucks...it really does. All we can do is keep doing what we do and not forget things like this...I'm sorry
I'm sorry. He looks like he was a really nice guy.
*hugs*
ryc: Thanks.
Very tough at any age, but I'm guessing its harder when you've just been able to experience life. Sorry to hear that.
Hey, I know it's tough to lose somebody, and be mad at God for it.
Trust me I know...a month before I turned nine years old, my dad passed away. I'm sixteen now and I still haven't been able to get over it. It's been really tough, and yes I will admit that I'm still mad at God and wonder that question, "why?". But I know God had a plan for it...
After my dad passed away, my uncle [my dad's brother] came to know Jesus as his Savior. So maybe God's plan was that my dad passed away so he could save his brother from hell or something.
I'll be praying for you, I send my condolences...
PRAYING FOR YOU!
Sometimes things aren't always clear to us...
Hello Crazy Beautiful,
You made your site so simple yet elegant. I see that you lost someone close to you recently. We all do! That’s the kind of world that we live in now, a world where sickness and death are a part of life. Fortunately, it isn’t going to stay this way much longer!
I want to help people to really get to know Jehovah God, especially in these troubled times. Here is an important message for us from Him that is in the Bible: "...I am about to shake up everything, to turn everything upside down and start over from top to bottom - overthrow governments, destroy foreign powers, dismantle the world of weapons and armaments, throw armies into confusion, so that they end up killing one another." (Haggai 2:21,22) (MSG)
I'm sorry for your loss.. This is definitely a part of life that is very unfair..
