Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
Life, I see it and feel it but when does one person look at it and see no hope, see nothing. I don't think life can be so bad, so horrible that a person would die because they don't want to live amongst us anymore.
This year I've already said good bye to a guy I'd known for 11 years, then I hear from two of my friends that their best friends have killed themselves.
I feel, part of me feels broken by this. It's not the fact they are gone that bothers me per say but the inability to find the good in the life we lead. It could be medical I understand that and what a curse it is to suffer under it's threatening hands.
I don't know why, I wish I could or better yet wish I could save people from that kind of death. I'm so grateful for the friendships I've built. I love each and everyone that I call my friend and I can't picture them not in my life. They are in it for a reason.
It's times like this when my inability to find the good in life and feel trapped in that dark pit of emotions that they seem nothing to what other's have to go through.
I'm lucky I don't have a bad life, I never have and hopefully never will but I know what pain feels like, I know what loss is like. It's not and never will be easy. I want to just reach out to Nick right now and find the right words to say to him to know that I'm here. I'll listen even if it's sitting there for hours in complete silence, just so he knows I'm here.
Life is so fragile, we need to hold onto it for dear life because it could be gone before we even have a chance to blink.
