life really is too short.
Too short for bitterness,too short to waste on hate,too short not to smile at someone while you still can, too short not to love and be loved, too short not live right.
something happened today, ALFA died. he was a mechanic who used to keep his tools in our yard, he died of extensive burns he sustained earlier this week in some kind of petroleum associated accident.
It's so sad because he was a good man, quick to smile, humble, kindhearted, and pleasant. he always had a smile on and liked my dogs (which made him a pretty stand up guy in my books)
I never really knew him and for that I'm sorry. his death reminds me of the transient nature of life.
LIFE, that fleeting shadow once gone never to return,leaving no mark.
i think of my friends and family and all the people i care about and i wonder, are we ready?
can one be prepared for the sting of death? Death is inevitable and often unexpected.
Now that you're alive, appreciate life, appreciate love,appreciate good health when you have it, find and love GOD, breathe free, breathe gratefully and remember that it wasn't meant to last. I'm alive and i want you to know that in my own little way i love you, i care about you, i appreciate you, and while I'm here I'm available to you anywhere, anytime, to the best of my ability.
Remember this if i die today; i lived, i loved, i hated, i felt, i cared, i gave, i gave and i gave some more. i have no regrets, I'm not living for fame and glory, just a need to positively influence everyone around me and be remembered fondly. It's all we have left, after corpses are buried and possessions shared. Memories.
I'll always remember you, because i've never really had a home and you make me feel at home. thanks for beliveving in me when i didn't believe in myself. Stay safe my friend.
