Tears

I sit here tonight with tears rolling down my cheeks. I just talked with one of my best friends in the world about the loss of her to be father-in-law. She talked about what a wonderful man he was and what a difference he has made in her life over the past 8-9 months. I am quickly reminded of all of the strong and wonderful persons that have passed over the last year. Far to many and quite frankly...it's just not fair. I thought we weren't supposed to have to worry about our parents health until they were "old." They aren't "old" yet...so why are so many of them hurting and struggling and passing on. I know life is not fair, but damn...

I know that God has a plan for everything and we have to have faith in that plan, but we are allowed to question it too, aren't we? Why these good people, why so early? I wish I knew the answer, but not nearly as much as those of you that have lost these people. So bottom line, this one is for all of you. Please know that you are not alone...these losses are felt, they are felt deeply. FD, KG, WQ...you will not be forgotten anytime soon.
