Cherish life, whether it be your own or that of your friends and family. Don't take anything for granted.
:beer::heart:


I don't know what happens when people die
Can't seem to grasp it as hard as I try
It's like a song I can hear playing right in my ear
That I can't sing
I can't help listening
And I can't help feeling stupid standing 'round
Crying as they ease you down
'Cause I know that you'd rather we were dancing
Dancing our sorrow away
(Right on dancing)
No matter what fate chooses to play
(There's nothing you can do about it anyway)

Just do the steps that you've been shown
By everyone you've ever known
Until the dance becomes your very own
No matter how close to yours
Another's steps have grown
In the end there is one dance you'll do alone

Keep a fire for the human race
Let your prayers go drifting into space
You never know what will be coming down
Perhaps a better world is drawing near
And just as easily it could all disappear
Along with whatever meaning you might have found
Don't let the uncertainty turn you around
(The world keeps turning around and around)
Go on and make a joyful sound

Into a dancer you have grown
From a seed somebody else has thrown
Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own
And somewhere between the time you arrive
And the time you go
May lie a reason you were alive
But you'll never know


I always thought I'd sing these lyrics at my Dad's furneral. Instead, I sang them at my wife's. Then, when my Dad died, I had no song left to sing.

Nothing to do but raise a toast and remember. The only true wealth you will ever have in this world is the people you are priveleged to be close to.

Go on and make a joyful sound.

Sorry to hear and I know exactly how you feel right now. I lost a good friend of mine the same way years ago. :(

:brokenheart: RIP

It's a grace that he still had time to reflect/repent after pulling the trigger.

Well I guess you can at least have some thanks in the fact that you got to see him one last time before he died, many of us have been there.

Hang in there! Realize there is nothing you could have done and try to comfort his ex as she is gonna have a rough time.
