"i hope all of februarys like this" [see this entry]
It's sad to see that this month had to amount to something so grand of a tragedy. Mykel's death has affected (positively and negatively) more people's lives than I could have ever imagined. In a way his death has been a blessing. He has opened atleast my eyes, I can't speak for anybody else, and has shown me that I need to live my life and never regret amything, because one simple mistake could end it all. His death taught me exactly what I always knew, but never put into practice. I need to show people how much I truly do care for them, because one day I might not be able to, and they may never know how I felt about them. I need to stop living my life in fear, I need to step out of my comfort zone, and I need to meet new people because those people could prove to change my life for the better.
I know that everyone is still hurting, and I actually feel ridiculous about being sad, because I was not as close to him as I know many others were. Yet he had a way about him, a charisma that made you want to know him, and made you like him whether you knew him for 1 day or your whole life. It's hard to accept a person's death, but as many people have said before, he is with God now, and being in Heaven is a LOT better than being on earth, I'm sure, and for this we should be happy. We should not be sad that Mykel is gone, we should be happy that he is in a better place and know that he is watching all of us from above.
I really wish everyone the best. and I hope that your heart heals in time. And just know that with every death there is a new life to look forward to.
