I promise I did not mean that in any offensive way; I was merely trying to describe my relationship with him and the heart problem is actually what caused him to die so young.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-263228614883563920.post-73361428308577535372009-04-27T08:23:00.000-07:002009-04-27T08:23:00.000-07:00Oh my goodness. :( That shocks me, too. I actually...Oh my goodness. :( That shocks me, too. I actually had something QUITE similar to me happen, so I feel I need to bore you with the story. I just finished typing it, and I'm sorry it's so long. Feel free to skip the story, but I just wanted to share. <br /><br />Two years ago, a close friend of mine introduced me to one of her boyfriend's friends. He was a nice guy who was a little over a year younger than me. He had a heart condition and was partially blind, but was perfectly normal otherwise. When I visited my parents for Christmas break, we talked often on messenger while he was still at the dorms. After that break, I found out from my friend that he had a crush on me. He never actually asked me out, but I didn't want to lead him on in any way. I stopped talking to him so much, and when the semester started, we didn't talk nearly as much at all. Right before spring break, I talked to him about the trip I was going on with the friend who introduced us. She was going to visit my parents with me for spring break and he told me he hoped we had a good time. As time had gone on, he and that friend had not gotten along so well, so it was really tense when I would bring her up. That week, I ended up removing him from my Myspace top friends and putting a closer friend in his place (silly, I know, but it sticks in my mind). I saw that he noticed when he completely removed me off of his too. The Monday of Spring Break, we found out he had died. I felt so guilty and like I could have treated him better. <br /><br />Death really is such a strange thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-263228614883563920.post-12529725293173001112009-04-26T04:58:00.000-07:002009-04-26T04:58:00.000-07:00I'm really sorry that happened.
I don't like thin...I'm really sorry that happened.<br /><br />I don't like thinking about death. Not because it's <I>scary</I> or anything. But, it's honestly confusing. <br /><br />So... I die, but not really... I'm reincarnated into a different person... who doesn't remember me, even though I'm me... or, I go to heaven... which is in the sky... but no one can see it? Or, there's always Hell... but Christians/Muslims/Jews have a different view of Hell that Buddhists, and then those Greeks. First thinks Hell is a punishment, the last thinks it can be, but not always. And, the middle thinks we're in Hell already.Madihttp://maureenjohnson.ning.com/profiles/blogs/beda-23-lazy-daynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-263228614883563920.post-53012666465852294492009-04-25T15:57:00.000-07:002009-04-25T15:57:00.000-07:00:-( That's really crazy. That's the 2nd death I've...:-( That's really crazy. That's the 2nd death I've heard about today (Bea Arther of Maude and The Golden Girls was the other).<br /><br />I get kinda sad in those moments when I realize how soon/random death could come, only b/c I wonder if I've really done something worthwhile with the life I've been given so far (like whose life have I impacted in a positive way).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-263228614883563920.post-87287443635286557072009-04-25T13:58:00.000-07:002009-04-25T13:58:00.000-07:00Wow...that's so crazy...
I'm a Christian too, but...Wow...that's so crazy...<br /><br />I'm a Christian too, but still, it's hard when someone you know (yeah, even casually) dies. Especially when they die young. <br /><br />I needed to hear this today, though...good blog :]Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
