Today I am sad. Not for me but for a friend. I will do what I can to help her through what is to come. She will help her sister get throught it some how. Life is not fair. It shows us how little control we have over ourselves and things.
The weather is beyond out control. The actions of others is beyond our control. Loss is a part of the process. But losing someone by their own hand is the hardest of all.
Did we see it coming? Did we try to help? Was there even a chance of helping?
I hope he is in peace now. His mother and my friend have another loss to survive. No parent should have to bury a child.
I will do what I know to do. A supply of tissues home cooked food and a hug are what I can offer.
I need to give my son and his kids a hug.
I will use the first box of tissues.
