It is sobering, but it really is part of life, we've come to expect death to be something that's done away from your family, in the hospital & that's what's sad.

It used to be that grandpa/grnadma would die in his/her own bed, among family, now people die among strangers, in a strange place.

Growing up on a farm, I put many(mostly neighbor's) dogs and cats out of their misery, as needed. At a fairly young age, I became the killer of all suffering things, it was expected of me.

Interesting... expected to see one person posting that was in combat. Strange how people forget about that aspect as far as how many people around you everyday may have killed a person. I stayed out of the military, so not me in case you were wondering. Though I know some.

it's probably not on their priority list of the things they want to talk about...probably higher on the list of things to forget about...

I once read some of my writing in front of about a 100 people. They got every joke in there, even the ones that were so subtle i thought no one would get them. They were eating out of my hand.

I really killed that night
