Life is to short

I came home from school..
My mom's attitude wasn't the same.

I let it go.

I overheard my mom and aunt talking about
something being really sad and something about what
about the kids.I thought it was another family divorce.

I let it go.

I kept seeing my moms face and I can't stand her being sad.

I let it go.

I logged into myspace and saw a R.I.P ________ friend update.

I asked who died.

Its was ________'s mom.

my mothers friend.

She has 6 kids oldest being my around my age(16).

the youngest only a few months.

They all have to grow up without their mother.

No child should EVER have to go through that.

I just sat there.Hot tears streaming down my face as
my mother and I stood wordless on the
stairs. I had to turn away.
I cant let anyone see me cry.

she said "take it easy" trying forcefully to stop her voice from breaking.

i went to my room and sat.

cried.

sat there.

cried.

LAKE CRYSTAL —
A 36-year-old Mankato woman was killed early today when the minivan she was driving crashed head-on with a semi near Lake Crystal. Her name is being withheld pending notification of relatives.
The State Patrol said the 12:44 a.m. accident happened on Blue Earth County Road 109 when the van spun out of control on an icy patch and was struck by the truck.
Semi driver Robert Fahey, 60, of Sioux Falls, S.D., was uninjured.
A passenger in the van, a 39-year-old Mankato woman, was airlifted to a Rochester hospital with unspecified injuries.


Life is too short. All I can say to anyone and everyone is be thankful for the people you have around you. Many of you may have already heard that, but seriously? When was the last time you told someone you loved them? Do it now.


My condolences goes out to her family and to anyone else whose lost a loved one.
