there have been many people passing away lately. earlier this week, my friend's mom passed away very unexpectedly. everyone's pretty distraught over this one, not just the family, but our friend and other friends. i'm not even super close to seachelle, but this one has definitely hit a spot in many people's hearts. her mom was pretty young, not even 60 yet. and the circumstances were just so unexpected. maybe that's what makes it so disturbing. at least when my aunt died, she was sick for a long time and everyone around had time to get used to the idea that she may pass on. but this one had no warning at all.
but for me, that's not the most disturbing part. i can't help thinking about what would happen if MY mom passed away suddenly. she's soo super strong in every sense of the word, and i couldn't imagine her passing away now. i depend on her so much even when i don't realize it. life would be incredibly harder if she weren't around. i can't imagine how seash is feeling. all i can offer are my condolences and prayers.

"To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the
greatest hazard of life is to risk nothing. The person who risks
nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid
suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change,
grow, live, and love."

"live a life that others will remember years from now, NOT because it pointed to you but because of how it pointed to the One who made you."
~ Mark Hart, the Bible Geek
"we grow up learning to become self-reliant, but really we need to be God-reliant"
"we could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box"
"never wound hearts that love u, never give them the endless pain, because wounded hearts are like roses that never bloom"
