new life makes losing life easier to understand

so here's the deal, S dad has had cancer for a little over a year now, but today she left in the middle of class because her dad was sent to the hospital and only has a couple days left. i'm one of those people, i guess i just kind of see death as a natural thing, something that happens to all of us. so i just somehow can't be sad. i remember him, he was a great man, one of the happiest people i know. and i'll always remember him, even though his time was much too short, there's nothing that can be done, one goes out one comes in y'know?

personally i think death should be more into celebrating life, thinking back on all the good times you've had, the memories the ones you've loved, and still love. and think, there has to be something more out there, it can't just be over like that. there has to be something more to it, the universe is such a complex place. but that's just my opinion, and everybody has there own thoughts on that. i just used to be so afraid of death and dying, not just me dying but also the ones i love, now i just want to enjoy my time, and not worry about silly things that are going to happen in the end. let time run it's course.
