Lately, I have been mourning the loss of a close friend and it sucks. He was taken so suddenly and now there are many of us suffering. He was hit head-on which caused him to roll when he hit a concrete barrier. Dying on impact and now my friend is no more. My friend was only 22 and had things going well for himself. Now he is gone and there will always be a hole in the lives he touched. This has pushed me to deal with something as of late. I have had to deal with how close we were and how important he was in my life. I met him when I was little and our families hung out a lot so we were like siblings. Time pulled us in different directions and we lost touch. I had just gotten back into touch with him and then he was taken from us. I know he was dealing with some stuff but he was getting through it. Now I don't know what to do anymore. His sister hasn't talked to me since the other day.
Sometimes we lose people sooner than we expected and it messes us up for a little bit. Just dealing with the loss we see what is important in life. Not everyone deals with a loss the same way. Some of us cry for a little while and others just bottle there feeling up. There is always a lesson to learn from the people who pass in your life. From my share of losses, I have learned that each day is a treasure and I can handle so much more than I thought I could. Sure it hurts but we must all keep moving and celebrate the time we got with them. Don't dwell on the loss dwell on the memories and the feelings you had with them. Each person we lose we keep them in our hearts as a piece of who we are. They fit in your heart like a puzzle piece that gets to stay there forever. With a loss, there is time for healing and a time for growth within. No one ever gets over the impact someone had in there heart, the pain just dulls over the years.
