hey there people.
well, went to my great aunt's funeral. it's weird, but i really am glad i went. it's awesome how someone can touch so many lives, can be loved by so many people. and the thing that really got me is that she probably would have been surprised at the turn out, surprised at all the people. she herself would have gone to every one of our funerals, but that so many people went to hers would have made her gladd i think.
it really makes me wonder though, if i am living my life as well as she did. it makes me wonder how many people would come to my funeral, what would they say? what memories would be recalled and what faults forgotten in the spirit of the event.....
it makes me wonder what i will do later in life. i'm a hermit right now, except for a few close friends. but that could change. i hope it will but my schedule doesn't allow for much more. but i don't know, what makes a person memorable? the reverend says faith hope and love. or something. i'm rambling. . ..
the funeral made me think is all. and remember her. and others who have died. some who i don't even know.
anyway, hard day tomorrow. gonna be up at 5 and probably won't get to bed til 3 or 4 sat morning. we'll see.
