A boy died today. I was there. I held his hand...and prayed as he left this earth. I didn't really know him. He was from a town not to far away from here. his parents left for the night, and were not there early in the morning, so I sat with him. He died an hour later. The sun was shining as he took his last breath. It was almost beautiful. His fight was valient. He was taken by cancer. He was 23. One year older than I am. How pathetic my life looks now. I feel pain, not because he died, I really don't know how to put it... His death makes me want to be a better person. I don't know how, or what to do. Maybe strive to be the best I can be? Learn how to love people, I find myself getting annoyed at people, and picking on them more often than not. I should learn to open my mind and learn to love them. Realise that they might be going through some of their toughest times and applaud them for it. Cry with me, not for the life that was lost, but for what humanity has taught us is right. Everyone IS special. Learn that with me.
