life is precious. don't take it for granted. don't take the time you spend with the ones you love for granted. focus on the good, and don't let the bad overshadow it. smile. my heart hurts right now for the loss family friends have experienced, but it will be okay. i am trying to listen to my mom when she says that god has a plan. i don't know the answer to the "why" question, but i am giving this a shot for right now.
