A week or two ago I had some people around me tell me how they had recently lost people in their lives and all I could think about was how life is not promised to anyone. You know the saying "Death comes in 3's" well for me this month I have found out 5 people have died so far that were from friends and only 1 that I knew. I only knew this nice, charismatic girl through a family member because they were best friends for years. She died at a young age due to health problems and it is a very sad situation because she had the opportunity to get healthy. Unfortunately she was young and when your young and trying to figure out who your friends are you get peer pressured. Now I know I may be making myself sound older than I already am but I truly and only 25 but I tend to think/refer to things like I'm well past 35/40. Weird? My family thinks so, but I can't help it. All I know, is that the whole time that I was trying to come to terms with this youthful girl is that just lost her life was......what if it was me or someone I truly care about and love. NOW I know that a lot of people would read this and think, hear we go again, but I thought that not to be selfish to her poor soul. I thought that because it made me reflect and want to change my life as well. Now I will admit, even though I did not know her all that well but from the few times I met her and saw her interact with my cousin, she really made an impression on my soul. I cried when I got alone and I prayed for her soul and for God to give her family strength to get through. R.I.P. M.T.
