It was an emotional day yesterday at the burial. My uncle was the oldest relative, and had been having problems with his health for a while, including several surgeries over the last year. It was not unexpected, but no less sad. He was a good and simple man. I here and there envy him for the way he lived his life, but my path is a different one. My

I had a lot of thougts this way a lot too this year. With 6 people out of near circle of family gone it made me think of how mortal a human being truly is. I never had a 'grand plan' for my life since I've never truly figured out what it was I wanted to do. I still don't.
In the end it sometimes made me sad that in the future of this human race, my name and life will probably not be remembered. I'm not the brightest sheep in this flok, I'll probibly never invent something fantastic, I'll never be famous and the only thing that will ever proove i've been alive is my birth and death registered in the books of government.
But in the end that is not what truly matters, I know that my friends and family will remember. And all I can do is hope they remember me kindly.
So for now I count my 'simple' blessings, I might not have a job at the moment and the economy is rough.. but I have this great person in my life that makes me happy. He and my family matter so much to me. I've even written my mom a letter to tell her so.
In the past I did not accomplish great things, I never had many friends till I started larping, but I got trough school oke and I´ve managed to get through some pretty rough stuff.
But I take pride in the fact that I´ve build up a happy life, I´ve got everything i need and everything I could possibly want.

Funny thing, you´ve allways been such a 'hero' to me :) I grieved when I lost contact with you and Lies during the 'black hole'. And I am really really glad and proud to count you as one of my dearest friends. And i hold dear memories of the time spent together.
