talking to teen just reminded me of how precious our lives are...
Aaayteeen: ok, don't mean to put a damper on your day, but i just talked to my dad, and he told me a story
Aaayteeen: so anyhow, there's this girl that he works with, that's like 21 - she's the daughter of the vice president of their company in indiana... and she's cool, he said she's like his indiana daughter, like, him and his other friends from work all go out, and she goes along with them
Aaayteeen: kind of how like the eprp nurses are with us...
Aaayteeen: so anyways, he said they all went out to dinner last night... went home
Aaayteeen: came back to work the next morning and found out she was in a head on collision and was air lifted to the main city - indiana (cause he works like 2 hours away from indiana)
Aaayteeen: and right after they came back from lunch, they found out she passed away
Aaayteeen: =(
Gail9611: : oh...
Aaayteeen: i was really sad for him
Gail9611: : how sad...
Gail9611: : that's terrible
Aaayteeen: he said that she was about to graduate from college, had everything going for her, nice family, etc...
Aaayteeen: so he called us (me and my brother) to tell us to be careful and everything... it was really sad
Aaayteeen: he said the whole office is in mourning and to like pray for her
Aaayteeen: poor girl
Aaayteeen: poor family
Aaayteeen: yeah, exactly - it sounded like my dad was gonna cry... cause he was like, i can't imagine how her dad feels - cause he knows her dad (since the dad is the vp of the company and all)
Aaayteeen: it's so sad
Gail9611: : man, imagine if that happened to someone we knew and were close to?
Gail9611: : **knock on wood**
Aaayteeen: yeah... that's what my dad's feeling... he's so sad
Aaayteeen: i felt really bad... i mean i didn't know what to say, but i'm sorry and all that...
Gail9611: : yah...i know what you mean
Aaayteeen: makes me cherish those close to me even more...
Gail9611: : i know what you mean
Gail9611: : makes me want to take advantage of the life i have
Gail9611: : you know what they say...live life to the fullest and all that junk
Gail9611: dude...21 - that's a lot of life that was taken away
Aaayteeen: yeah man... that's frikin young
so can everyone just take a little time today to just pray for the soul of this girl and the family and friends she left behind...and while you're at it, take a little time to thank God for the people you have in your life and for thanksgiving that you're still alive...
