Happy Birthday!
My friend Michael who passed away a couple of weeks ago would have been 51 today. I still can't believe he is gone. I'm having a hard time with it because he was so young and fit and it happened so very fast.
Also the pastor at his memorial service left me with a bad taste in my mouth. He was chosen because someone was at a service he gave before and though he was really good. Well at this one I swear he thought he had to save all of us. He kept saying that we are mortal because of sin and we are all going to die and that it won't be long before we will be have a service like this for us...then he pointed to us in the crowd. Kept talking about Jesus and how we need him in our lives....etc Well this didn't put me at ease at all and I'm Catholic and believe in Jesus!
I think he thought he was delivering a sermon at his church on Sunday and not trying to comfort a large group of people of different faiths who just needed help trying to understand what had just happened.
I think I left more upset and now all I think about is when will it be my time to die......uggghhhhhh!
Okay, enough venting for the day.
I'm going to have a mango margarita today and toast a good friend! I wish he were here, I really miss him. But I know I will see him soon.....well maybe not soon :) but you know what I mean.
Hau`oli la hanau! Michael!
