Why do all the good people leave the earth way too early? I don't understand it one bit? Not only have I lost at least 15 friends in the past few years, but now another. Mike was one of the nicest people I have ever met and never gave anyone problems. He was always there when you needed someone to talk to and always knew how to cheer people up. Today seeing him at the viewing made it so real to me. I still almost can't believe it.... it looked nothing like him. It's amazing the work they did on his face though. He was homeless for the past two weeks living up in the woods by the tracks and a few days ago, he was crossing train tracks when an oncoming train honked their horn for him to get out of the way and so he quickly ran to the other side not knowing the was another oncoming train who unfortunately didn't see him. What's sad is he didn't die instantly.... he lived for another 4 and a half hours and I pray he was so drugged up that he didn't feel any pain. It's one of the worst ways I can imagine dying. Life is way too short to take people for granted, to put off plans with loved ones, to get so caught up in my own life that I don't make time for others... And every time another friend passes, it brings back all the painful memories of my other loved ones that I have lost over the years. I thought I was starting to get numb to this whole thing, but I guess you never really do. I just hope there really is an afterlife for all these precious loved ones.. I hope Mike is up there in peace playing his guitar, finally having an actual place to call home. He will always be in my heart and I pray there is somewhere to go where I can meet up with him some day. I guess that is true when they say only the good die young, because he was an AMAZING person and friend. I will never forget you....
And not to mention Elsie. She was such a talented, beautiful girl from the inside out and now she no longer has to suffer from all the pain she was in. These things must happen for a reason. We may not understand them now, but one day we will.
