Something inevitable happens when everyone around you dies.
You realize how short life is.
So what do you do when you are equally scared of living and of dying? You compose a bucket list. And then lose said bucket list.
Well, that is what happene...

Nothing in life is promised.
No one ever made a promise that we will keep on breathing until the end of time. At some point, the breath in our lungs will run out, and we will become part of the earth that we were created from.
Harsh, but oh so true. And believe me, I know this truth all too well. When you witness death for the third time in 17 years you can't deny this truth.
Nothing in life is promised.
Death is inevitable.
It was inevitable for my dad first. His in the form of a drunk driver.
It was inevitable for my sister. Hers in the form of cancer.
And now, sitting in front of a dull grey grave, surrounded by "loved ones" it was inevitable for my best friend. Hers is the form of an overdose.
It is all so strange how everyone becomes a loved one once you are dead. How they all seem to notice you only once you are gone. If only they noticed her when she was alive, then we all would not be here.
Mourning.
Crying.
Wondering how life could be so cruel as to take so many people away from you.
And at some point in our lives we have this epiphany moment. A moment so rare where everything just clicks into place.
I never thought mine would come while burying my best friend in the ground. But it did. And it hit me hard.
Nothing in life is promised.
So we have to do everything in our power to make the best of it. Even when we feel like there is no point. Because nothing in life is promised.
Certainly not life itself.
