the sister,
the daughter,
the niece,
the best friend,
the captain of the basketball team,
the class president,
a beautiful girl..
died last night. someone's best friend is gone, and now will never get more chances to tell her that she was the best friend. a family is trying to hold themselves together, trying to fake an image that they are okay.. well who's ever okay when they lose someone? everyday we go through life, when you're at school, the mall, whatever, and we spend time with people and never really think about how much that person means to us, and how much of an impact they have on your life. last night, my best friend's sister died in a hospital bed, where family and her closest friends gathered to say their final goodbye's. i was standing there, just watching her every move. it seemed as if she was twice as strong as we were, she knew her time had come and that all she wanted, is what she had right there in front of her.. her family and her best friends. i've never seen her more grown-up and wise then at that time, and i wish i could be half as brave as she was. RIP Jamie, you were one of a kind, and left your mark. Dave nothing is set before you that you can't handle, or overcome, im here for ya.
