i feel compelled to write right now about a kid from woodward named Tyler Dodson. today he died of heart problems while running the track at school. this kid was only in 8th grade! he hadn't even tasted life man. and he didn't even know it was coming. death just took him. his parents had no clue they just sent him off to school and the poor coach of his gym class. and his brother who is only a year older then him. i just can't believe it. can you imagine dying soooooo young??? this poor kid. he was a good kid too.
after experiencing the death of the man on marta last Sunday and now this young kid's death...i feel like death is right at my door. these two events keep on reminding me that life is so so so short...and if we don't live it out to the max, and do everything we ever dream of then we're wasting it. don't follow the system just cause it's what you're supposed to do...live life how you want it. make yourself happy. life is way too short to waste. may God be with his family and friends.
