ok. so this has sort of been my life. i need to know - is this alright, does it need work, does something sound better a certain way, anything criticism, praise, suggestions, comments whatever i'm putting myself out there you let me know
"And I have learned that every difficult and challenging experience communicates a message of hope, as long as you possess the ability to see it."
easier said than done. but out of all the people i know, you seem to be one of the very few that posses this ability. it's all about what you allow yourself to feel, how to deal with it, and what you do about it. the message in itself is given in such a violent and uncomforting way, it's basically like someone shouting in your face, what's your initial reaction? run. you have so much more in that brain of yours than you often give credit to.
as for the essay? flawless. death is a touchy subject for so many. couldn't of said it better myself.
thank you chris, i'm flattered you still think so highly of me mind you, i'm rather undeserving, but i'm thankful nonetheless :] and as for your analogy of death, i completely agree i honestly haven't even accepted the fact that he's gone, and that's probably why it was sort of easy for me to write about it, considering
i think the hardest part was walking away from the casket in the cemetery. it makes me sick just thinking about
it's amazing....what the written word can do for you...writing it, reading it, living it, and the fact that you can feel it....something as simple as letters and words compiled in front of you, so simpily...... don't change a thing...it's from you, it's from your heart...that's the way it should stay....
thanks em for the comment and the praise i'm worried about the informal tone but i think i did the best i could, considering it is a story and those are hard to tell without using "I" or "me" but i'm glad you see all the messages i'm trying to imply with it i know you can see them thank you xx
the more i watch of those shows (CSI, Forensic Files, etc.) the more pull i feel towards them not because of the show but because of the career they illustrate
i feel as though it may be 'my calling' as lame as that may sound but, you know what i mean
