Sometimes I think we all forget that our lives are not the entire be all of our world. I know that it's not a constant thought, but I know that there are times we all do it. I was in such a mind set last night, frought with unanswered questions and dilemas of my personal life when I read the news that Chris Reeve was dead. This saddened me, for as with most of you, he was Superman, plain and simple. A sad day indeed.
But then, like most of the world, I shook my head, said a silent prayer for his soul and his family, and moved on. Wonder why it is that I can't seem to do that with other aspets of my life? I mean its been a few years now, and I still get a tear in myh eye about my grandfather. And then there's my aunt and mother. And then, when I am really feeling like my heart needs to be ripped, I think about the child I could have had. Vibrant flashes of dark memories.
Go on about your day good son, and know that even if it was brief, your passing was noticed, and saddened many.
