The dictionary definition of Life is:The interval of time between birth and death

Life: A series of moments, both good and bad.

I consider life to be like a rollercoaster, Never knowing how long you are going to be up or down. And when you go down, everything goes down so quickly. And it keeps going, it never stops for anything. I realized that today. While last night a terrible car accident claimed the life of a 16 year old girl, and put a 17 year old boy in the hospital, life continues. Those left, loved ones, school mates, friends, family are all left to grieve and pray and hope that he is okay, That he will pull through and live. Parents are left to make arrangements that parents should never have to make, friends are left to go through the pain of losing a friend. And yet everything keeps moving. As much as you wish things would stop, they wont. They keep going. You are forced to move ahead, to live your own life, as hard and unfair as it seems.

Today was very hard. Listening to Quinn read that email outloud to the class was one of the worst things i have ever heard. And as soon as i heard the names, my heart dropped, someone i have known since elementary school, and his girlfriend, whom i have talked to a few times, were in a car accident last night. She was killed instantly and He is in the hospital. 16 is far to young to die. so much left ahead, and it was all taken away by one stupid mistake. A stupid mistake, that as rob pointed out, any one of us can make while driving. It just as easily could have been anyone of my closest friends, or even myself. And by academic lab all of this became too much. To know that not only did this affect me, but even more so my closest friends killed me. I just hope he is okay. I wish his family and her family all the luck in the world, i know the feeling all to well of losing a loved one, and today was another time, i had to feel the pain of losing someone i know. Its the worst feeling in the world. One i wouldnt wish upon anyone, but everyone ends up feeling sooner or later.

This brings back so many memories, of losing Nils, my uncle, Tyson. Its hard, i still cant believe its been 2 years since nils passed away. That was the most terrible thing i have ever been through. I miss him everyday. And i think about him everyday. Tyson too. Its been almost 4 years now, and not a day goes by. Life is very very unfair sometimes. But you just realize that you never know whats going to happen, you cant predict when it will be your time to go. You just have to enjoy and make the best of what you have and hope you get many more tomorrows......

Im watching my friends fall apart, slowly. And im trying to stay together to help them. Through all of this hell that goes along with losing someone. Its so hard to watch. So hard to watch people cry, and to talk about everything that happend. But its part of life. Talking is good, im glad i can help people. Its the staying together thing thats chalenging. But im good at it. Atleast i hope. i wish i could wake up tomorrow and all of this would be taken back, but its not going to happen. Life just isnt that easy

I realized that everything seems so petty and stupid. ALl the unecsarry arguements, the fights, the name calling and not getting along. Its a waste of time you could be enjoying life. Things can change so quickly. Life is to short to not tell people how you feel, that you love them, or care for them. Life is to short to stay mad about pointless things, to worry about grades, or a homework assignment that tomorrow will mean nothing. To worry about what someone thinks of you, or if you are liked by everyone.
I leave you with this question
Would you really feel comfortable with how you left things if something were to happen to you tomorrow?
