Just some thoughts...

I am probably one of the most emotionally weak persons (grammatically, this sounds wrong, but I don't feel like busting my brain at the moment) you will ever come across. I hide myself behind many facades to protect my core. I cry very easily. I'm very dependent. When I heard my nephew say "I love you", it brought tears to my eyes. I'm not talking about Jonathan, my younger nephew, I know he loves me because he's just a loving kid. It was an older nephew, Anthony, who told me. I don't think I've ever heard him tell me that he loves me.

I was recently told that my nephews', Jesse and Anthony, mom passed away. She lost control of her truck and it flipped and she was ejected. I talked to Anthony and he sounded fine on the phone, he said he's just staying positive, and he's trying to figure out what to do for her and all of that stuff. I think about him, he's 20-21, and that's a lot of burden, even if it is also split with Jesse, but I haven't talked to him yet.

I never knew their mom, I know she has a younger kid and Anthony says he's being taken care of, so that's good. But wow....losing a parent is hard. Especially if the parent and/or the child is young.

Wow. Death is a scary thing. It brings out sides of people that you never really see. And, well, I don't know. All I know is that you have to thank God for what you have here and now and remember you are blessed and never forget to tell people you lvoe them.

hmm...
