ok so im gunna jump on the bangwagon and respond to what's been going on the past week in good ol' boring crystal lake.
so, there was a recent death of a guy who was friends with people i go to school with. i've never met him, but he went to my middle school, but i dont know him at all. never heard his name before and never had a clue. but when he died, i saw the agony and the depression in my classmates faces and it hit me hard. i mean, some of the poeple im friends with, and i gave my condolences to them. it's a sad time in their life, when their best friend just died. & i wish there was something i could do. i mean, theres a certain person that im not friends with, i've probably talked to her like 3 times my entire life, and when i saw her leave the classroom because she was crying too hard, it made me want to give her a hug, though i dont know her. just seeing the pain in someones face, hurts. no one should have to expeirence their best friend dying let alone commiting suicide. it's never happened to me before and i've thanked god so many times for that and i've apprciated my life and the life of my friends. i just wish there was somehting i could do for my classmates who are suffering. no one should go out like that. when you're that depressed and that angry at the world, theres no where to go but up. i just wish thi kid would have realized that, it would have spared him his life, his friends and family the pain and agony they have to life with the rest of their lives, and broken hearts of everyone who had to see the pain and agony of his friends and family. but maybe it's a learning experience, maybe it's a lesson from god or soemthing. maybe his death is teaching us to make sure we love until we can't love anymore, and to be there for everyone. no matter who you are. make sure you tell that person you love them so they know. this kid didn't know how many people loved and cared about him, and trust me there was a lot. more than i could have imagined. and even kids who have met him once or note ven at all, are treating his death like he was their best friend. and yeah i guess thats ok, but at least have respect for those who did know him and who cared about him. though i didnt klnow him, it did affect me, it hit to close to home. now all i think about is that that could have been one of my friends, or someone i talk to at school. so im going to tell them every cahnce i get that i love them and they mean something to me. thats what i got out of it and it sucks that someone had to lose their life for me to realize that, but thats how it goes. so, whoever is reading this, if you were friends with him, im sorry for all the pain you're going through, you shouldn't have to feel the way you do, but i hope you over come this and realize that he did it for a reason that he thought was good. all you can do now is remember him for who he was and how he lived his life. and i give my deepest sympathy to you and it will get better, i promise.
