The Frailness of human life
There are a lot of things going through my mind right now. A lot of different thoughts….. Today I learned that a friend of mine died. Though I didn’t talk to her at all and maybe had a few encounters with her I still call her a friend because on every instance that I have met her she has been so very nice to me. I was in the Library when a friend called me to inform me that Tracy had died. To me this was a shocking thing because she seemed healthy and she was so young. I needed to blog about this topic because it in truth was hanging over me like a cloud, ever since the news came to me I could not stop thinking about it. To me this death brought back fresh memories of my old dear friend Meredith. It was like a bucket of freezing cold water was thrown on me waking me up from a warm slumber. It occurred to me.. yet again that I am not immortal… none of us are. My Friend Meredith died at the age of 16 from cancer. That to me was my first real time loss, something I understood and feared. I’ve been down all day due to the turn of recent events. My mind is scrambled right now. Ive been trying to distract myself but I cannot.
My prayers go to the Fisher family I am truly sorry for your loss.
